It’s nice to see that we no longer trust privatization as a the magic wand that solves public institution problems.
That said I think the 52% support for non-union gig work in Canada Post is indicative of the mindset that needs shifting if Canada is to change course in a way that makes most people better off long term.

Yeah fuck the idea of bringing in “gig” workers.
Using Gig workers is basically saying “at will employment isn’t shitty enough”
If you need staff employ them.
I’m fine with 3 day a week mail. Even 2 days a week. But I’ll have no part of that gig economy bullshit.
