Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to present a petition signed by 30 people mostly from my riding of Red Deer.
My constituents are concerned that rural route mail couriers often earn less than the minimum wage and that private sector workers who deliver mail in rural areas have collective bargaining rights, as do public sector workers who deliver mail for Canada Post in urban areas.
Therefore the petitioners call upon parliament to repeal subsection 13(5) of the Canada Post Corporation Act.
