Canada Post CEO says he supports Ottawa’s plan to shore up its shaky financesBy Canadian Press on October 1, 2025. OTTAWA — The CEO of Canada Post says he supports the government’s plans to shore up the Crown corporation’s finances. “Canada Post remains a vital national institution — and Canadians deserve a postal service that is strong, stable and fits their needs.”Procurement Minister Joël Lightbound announced sweeping changes on Sept. 25 to stop Canada Post from bleeding money as mail volumes plummet. Ettinger also said the company needs to be leaner and pointed to attrition as a way to reduce its size. She also said Canada Post needs to put a new offer on the table quickly and the union needs to consider any proposal seriously.
