More often then not that means another career or province, not just another job, but I guess you are right.

I don't think unions deserve to be placed above all else. I think the best way to make sure unions are always relevant is to have workers choose to pay from their own pockets. At the very least they should face annual certification or something.

Right now, once in tax payers and consumers have to fund them, they pretty much can't be fired, workers can't choose to participate or not or sometimes even disagree - forever. It makes no sense in this day and age.
