    My lord!!! Randall is saying something here that I’ve been saying to friends and family for yeeeeeeears! Unions just hurt everyone in the end. Like Randall said the unions take it out on the customers. Plus when they go to renew the contracts for all employees, all the wages go up. Well guess what, combined huge cost to the company trickles down to the customers and we end up flipping the bill. I say unions shouldn’t be in Canada. I am unbias, I am self-employed with no employees. I am not part of a union and I have no employees under me.

    I`m getting pretty tired of Union bashing in this Country. If it wasn`t for Unions most of the working public would be working a hell of a lot more then 40 hours a week and for a lot less pay. Unions made that happen. And you can thank the Unions for you`re weekends off too. Safety and Health concerns have all been overseen by Unions or private companies would have you working in unsafe conditions with no recourse. You can thank the Unions for you`re E.I. cheque the next time you cash it. I`d make a bet that most of the public that are whining about Unions have never belonged to one and wouldn`t know how a Union works if it slapped them upside the head. So all of you who shine a seat with you`re ass for a living, put a rubber band around you`re forehead and snap out of it will ya.

    The union bashers are just instinctively protecting their rich owners like modern-day Uncle Toms. The worst union bashers are those that belong to unions themselves and I’ve seen plenty of those in my day. Yeah, it’s the big bad greedy union that’s gotta take the heat for a company that loses money while rewarding its highest paid executives. Idiocy knows no bounds.
