Quote from Doug Ettinger, President and CEO
“I’d like to congratulate and thank everyone at Canada Post for working together to achieve so much in the past year. Canada Post is committed to being the kind of corporate leader Canadians expect us to be, and that means leading on the environment and better reflecting Canadians’ values. While we have significant work to do over the coming years, we’re committed to getting to net zero by 2050, and helping to build a postal service that better meets the needs and expectations of Canadians. I’d like to recognize and thank our bargaining agents for their ongoing collaboration as we continue this journey.”
Quote from Carrie Chisholm, Vice President, Environment, Social, Governance
“We continued to take action on the environment and sustainability in 2022, with impressive progress in the areas of accessibility, diversity and supporting Indigenous reconciliation. We continued to build a more inclusive workplace, with diversity and inclusion being key parts of our culture journey. It’s also been exciting to watch our first order of electric vehicles roll out as we start to drive toward a fully electric last-mile fleet by 2040. Together, we’re building a greener, stronger and more inclusive postal service for Canadians.”
