Alert on Canada Post Nationwide Strike & Recommended Shipping Adjustments

Dear Customer,

We have received the latest notification from Canada Post: due to unresolved negotiations between the postal service and the union, members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) will initiate a nationwide strike starting September 26, 2025, and pickup services will be suspended.

Potential Impact:

Affected Warehouse: CATO Warehouse

Order Dispatch Dates: From September 26, 2025

Affected Products: Canada Post – Expedited Parcels

Recommended Actions:
To avoid shipping disruptions similar to the nationwide strike period last year (Nov 15, 2024 – Dec 23, 2024), we recommend that you proactively adjust your orders and consider using the following alternative shipping options:

CA UPS – Standard Single Parcel

UNI – Domestic Delivery
