October 11, 2006 – Canada Post has been selected by Mediacorp as one of Canada 's Top 100 Employers for 2007. Mediacorp is a Canadian publisher that specializes in employment issues.

Winners of the Top 100 Employers competition are listed in the Oct. 16, 2006 issue of Maclean's magazine and will also be featured in all Canwest newspapers across Canada . Detailed descriptions of each of the 100 selected employers, including a profile of Canada Post, will appear in a book entitled “ Canada 's Top 100 Employers 2007” due for release later in the fall. The book is considered a guide to best practices in recruitment and retention.

To compile the list, Mediacorp's editorial team reviewed the recruitment histories of over 60,000 employers across Canada and invited 10,000 to apply. The team received more than 1,500 applications.

“We are very proud to have been selected as one of the country's top 100 employers,” said president Moya Greene. “Canada Post does many things very well and offers workplace programs that are the envy of our peers. We know we still have work to do in our journey to become an employer of choice, but having this recognition shows that we are on the right track.”

As part of the competition, Canada Post is also being recognized as one of the National Capital Region's Top 15 Employers for 2007, to be announced in the October 14 edition of the Ottawa Citizen .

This was the first time Canada Post had applied to be recognized as one of Canada 's Top 100 Employers. Mediacorp started compiling this annual list in 2000.
