The union representing Canada Post workers is in a legal strike position as of Nov. 15. 

The Crown corporation warns a potential strike will further impact its already dire financial situation, while the union says despite talks beginning almost a year ago, the parties remain far apart on many issues, including wage increases, pensions, and medical leave.

Queen’s law expert Kevin Banks is available to speak to media about the following:

• What limits can governments put on constitutional rights to bargain collectively and to strike?
• How does binding arbitration to resolve a negotiating dispute work? What are its advantages and disadvantages?
