RickyWars1Federal labour board deems Air Canada flight attendants' strike 'unlawful'
cygnusIt would be nice if the article explained why the tribunal declared the strike unlawful. What was the rationale?
They hurt the economy’s feewings 😔. But in all seriousness they deemed the strike to have too large of an impact on Canadians and the Canadian economy, making them and go back to work. But since the original order was defied now the strike is illegal.
Thanks - if that was the rationale, then AC should be nationalized. No private company should be allowed to become so essential to the functioning of our country.
Especially if they show such negligence where they are willing to cause such economic disruption to avoid paying workers fairly.
This whole charade where Air Canada is a “private company” definitely needs to come to an end. I totally agree, if it quacks likes a duck, and has a hotline to the government who will premeditatedly act in its favour, or bail out at the first hint of trouble, whelp that’s sounding like a government protected company to me too.
Especially if that’s access the other airlines don’t have. Westjet has been on strike before and I don’t remember the feds stepping in.
