Why is that?
Well they are not really comparable. The c-train and bus drivers are the same organization. Them blocking the train tracks or not going into work to drive those trains are basically accomplish the same thing. Where as the natives would be blocking a private company that has nothing to do with them. It would be like the transit drivers parking their buses across deerfoot and blocking traffic.
