Hey there!  I’m a Canuck too out here in Alberta.  Transplanted guy from Ottawa 12 years ago.

Can you believe what the government is doing with all this legislating workers back to work lately?  Air Canada isn’t even a publicly owned company!  How can they even threaten to legislate them back to work?  I’m really starting to worry what the next four years hold for us here, man.  We’re heading into a bargaining year in my local too.  Will they try and send us back to work too if we strike?  Crazy stuff.  It’s like they’re turning back labour history 100 years or something.

Ben,

Just got back from the IBEW convention in Vancouver and signed-up a bunch of new Canadian members there so hopefully you will see some of them on the forum soon.
