Canada Post and the union representing thousands of its mail carriers took their biggest step toward ending a long saga of collective bargaining Friday, agreeing in principle to a set of new contracts.

In a statement, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers said rotating strike action has been suspended as the two sides work out language in the new contracts. Canada Post agreed to the same terms for any lockout action.
