For how often you claim with certainty that it happens you really don’t provide a lot of examples. Are you expecting everyone to take your word for it? How many unions have you been a member of in your lifetime?

So while you, and various judges, may view these infringements on individual freedom and rights acceptable, I think it definitely helps to explain why so many, and a growing number of, Canadians view unions in such a negative light.
So if I give you the benefit of the doubt and assume your claim that a growing number of Canadians see unions in a negative light is accurate, you’re saying the route cause is because unions are infringing on people’s individual freedom and rights that those people don’t actually have as rights?
