After a marathon 58-hour debate, weary members of Parliament didn’t hide their exuberance at finally getting to vote on the government’s back-to-work legislation to end the postal dispute.
Mail service should resume within days after M-Ps passed a back-to-work bill for locked-out Canada Post employees last night.

The bill now goes to the Senate and could become law as early as tonight.
