Earlier this year, the Government of Saskatchewan implemented contingency plans in response to the postal labour disruptions and is prepared following the announcement of a national strike from the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) on September 25, 2025.  Ministries, Crowns and agencies put these plans in place to limit its impact on services. The government continues to encourage all clients, suppliers and businesses to switch to direct deposit, as those payments will not be impacted by postal services.

Following the Federal, Provincial and Territorial (FPT) Ministers of Agriculture virtual meeting, Federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Heath MacDonald and Saskatchewan Minister of Agriculture Daryl Harrison announced Saskatchewan producers will see changes to AgriStability for the 2025 program year. 

The Government of Saskatchewan is preparing for a possible postal strike that could begin as early as May 22, 2025. Ministries, Crowns and agencies have put contingency plans in place to limit service disruptions.
