Postal Strike to Expand?

The Canada Post strike is starting to impact service in northwestern Ontario.

A member of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers in Dryden says mail delivery in some parts of that community has been cancelled.

The Crown Corporation has also reportedly cancelled employees' drug plan and vacations.

The official also indicates that job action is escalating and a full-scale strike could come as early as Monday.

Union officials in Fort Frances could not be reached for comment.
