Are they going to wait until the union runs out of money? Will the union start asking it’s members to take less than $75 per day? I guess Striking employees have to be more aggressive on the picket lines, their union doesn’t have the money to strike for too long.

It seems to be a game of who will blink first.

PSAC members are receiving $75 a day in strike pay, and Aylward has been firm that the union has the money to continue the strike for as long as necessary.
"We have access to over $200 million, so, again strike pay is not an issue," he said Sunday.”

Unions doing math?

$200mm sounds like a lot... except when you have ~150,000 members collecting $75/day...
