That concept has now evolved in many countries including Canada, but yes, that's why unions were created in the first place.
And sorry for my ignorance on the sarcasm, but the Karl Marx reference is too easy of a card to play!

With regrads to public sector unions, Are you really seriously worried that the very people who legislate workers rights legislation would need to have unions protecting the minimum rights of their own workers? Sounds more like people who would rather work 37.5 hours a week at any cost than people who are scared sh^%less that old man Stelmach or old man Bronconnier are going to opress them and place them in harms way.
