Yep!

THE union that represents 3,800 customer-service and sales staff employed by Air Canada has set a June 13th deadline for the ratification of a new contract, otherwise its members will go on strike. The workers have been without a contract since March 1st. The sticking point is Air Canada's wish to reduce pension benefits for existing employees and change the pension plan for new workers from defined-benefit to defined-contribution, something the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW) Local 2002 union vehemently opposes.

In the event of a strike, Air Canada has said it would maintain full operations and implement a contingency service to minimise any impact on passengers. But that might be difficult if other union members refuse to cross picket lines or if the airline's pilots also walk off the job.
