  • The extra interesting part. Although the article pretty short.

    Air Canada flight attendants on Saturday overwhelmingly voted against the airline’s latest wage offer, their union said — a vote that’s expected to have no impact on flight operations.

    The tentative deal, which ended a strike at the airline last month, includes a 12 per cent salary increase this year for most junior flight attendants and an eight per cent bump for more senior members, followed by smaller raises in subsequent years.

    The Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) said in a statement that 99.1 per cent of members rejected the proposal, arguing flight attendants would still earn less than federal minimum wage.



  • Can you elaborate on the “authorize” portion? This is all that’s in the article regarding why the person is speaking at the event.

    Roberts is speaking to Carney’s cabinet during a session dubbed “establishing a new economic and security relationship with the U.S.” They will also hear from Kevin Rudd, Australia’s ambassador to the U.S., during the session.

    The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said Roberts is speaking to cabinet about trade issues because he knows the Trump administration’s playbook.








  • Ignoring that the Liberals is in the wrong side of this.

    It’s crazy how big of strategic blunder this is for them. They could have at least waited a week to harvest the general outrage like the Conservatives like to do and they could have gone at least another degree off instead picking a ex Air Canada employee to handle the binding arbitration.

    The former is bad enough but the latter is pathetic display from a bunch of people who continuesly try to portray themselves as the best Canada has to offer.


  • The whole article makes is seems like Hajdu is grossly incompetent and just came in swinging without any real comprehension of what’s happening.

    It clearly isn’t a just between 2 parties when you interjected yourself into it, while highly favouring one side.

    The investigation itself will not put an end to labour unrest at Air Canada — it will take “a number of weeks” for Hajdu’s department to interview employers and unions to get the full scope of collective agreements in the Canadian airline sector, she said.

    “This dispute is now in the hands primarily of the two parties, to be honest,” she said.
