The threat of possible job action by Canada Post workers has been placed on hold for 24 hours.
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers made the announcement in a statement issued late Sunday night.
They will have complete updates as they become available.
Negotiations between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) continued Sunday afternoon in a long-running contractual dispute.
The two sides have been meeting with mediators since Friday and worked all day Saturday, said Canada Post spokesperson Jon Hamilton.
However, on Thursday, CUPW issued a 72-hour strike notice, which came into effect Sunday at midnight if a deal was not reached.
Strike actions would rotate through the provinces and territories on a day-by-day basis, CUPW said in a statement. The protests would include refusing to work overtime, even when prompted by Canada Post management.
If a settlement is not reached, the first of the actions will begin Monday in the Northwest Territories and Alberta.
