Teamsters stuck UPS Canada today, stopping most UPS shipments in and out of the country.

The UPS Canada web site posted this notice:
“Effective Monday, November 22, the Canadian Council of Teamsters representing UPS Canada employees initiated a work stoppage. As a result, we are temporarily unable to provide service to your location. We regret the inconvenience caused by this disruption in service."
The notice said Teamster members had voted down a tentative agreement reached on October 1 and called the work stoppage "unneccesary."
”UPS has implemented contingency plans to deliver all shipments picked up as of Thursday, November 18, however these shipments may continue to experience some delays," the notice continued.
”The following services are suspended until our negotiations are resolved:
• Pick up and delivery of all UPS Canada courier shipments destined for locations within Canada, to the U.S. or to Worldwide destinations
• UPS Standard to Canada
"Delivery of UPS Worldwide ExpressSM and UPS Worldwide ExpeditedSM shipments into Canada will continue, however these services may experience some delays.
"UPS delivery guarantees on shipments to and within Canada are suspended.
This work stoppage affects UPS Canada operations only and will have no effect on UPS operations outside of Canada.”
