So what you’re saying is that employees in the sector where 74% of the workforce is unionized are compensated 30% more than employees in the sector where only 16% are unionized. Hmmm. Makes you wonder whether it’s a matter of public sector workers being overpaid or private sector workers being underpaid due to a having lower levels of union membership. The fact that the gap in compensation is growing as union membership in the private sector declines seems to suggest the latter.

PSAC also spent over 100 million dollars advertising during the last federal election so they've got very good reasons to keep that gravy train going.

Wow you’ve really raised the bar to new heights as far as presenting blantantly false information is concerned. You’re claiming PSAC spent 9 figures on advertising when they didn’t even come close to spending 8 figures.
If unions are as bad as you try to make them out to be, why do you feel it’s necessary to make things up to attack them? The truth should speak for itself, should it not?
