The full report has been made available by commissioner William Kaplan if anyone is interested.It's 162 pages long but I've seen a few news reports already about selected passages and recommendations. https://williamkaplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/CANADA-POST-IIC-Report-ENG-2025.pdf Broad strokes are confirmation that Canada Post is effectively insolvent, despite the union's crys that such statements were manufactured or exaggerated. Major changes need to be made to how parcel delivery works. Both sides need to concede things to reach an agreement (but the union moreso than the corporation). The moratorium on rural post office closures and community mailbox conversions needs to end (this was a decision made by Trudeau back in 2015). Overall, the report definitely leans more in favour of Canada Post than the union.We'll see how the government responds within the next week I guess.
