A major processing centre for Canada Post in Toronto has also been shut down by CUP-W members for the second time since their job action started on Oct. 22.
Canada Post admits this latest action will only worsen the backlogs experienced during the first walkout in October.
Strike action is also taking place today in 11 other Ontario communities and two in Quebec.
