I'm willing to do the same. And the port workers also need more effective negotiators willing to do the work.
How? Find a middle ground on the number of jobs to cut to non-union workers per year?
The top four companies represent posted profits of $100, $25, $20, and $15 billion dollars. That's a third of Canada's expenditures.
I am not a professional negotiator, but there MUST be a solution found without calling in the government.
Maybe the companies needs to take it on the chin this time. Maybe they could use better negotiators.
I agree. But billionaire companies are greedy and looking to gain 2 wins here.
That's no reason to be on their side though.
I'm absolutely NOT on the side of billionaires.
Hey one question: What does boot polish taste like?
I was infantry. I suspect you don't know how we spit-polish a boot. There's a slight variation in taste depending on brand and mixture.
Did you intend to out yourself as tough-guy con chicken-hawk with that weak jab?
Blocking you, troll.
