While it’s nice to see that some people are starting to realize the benefits unions can have in standing up against and deterring government overreach, expecting the province that has the strongest restrictions on unionizing, and as a result also the lowest workforce union density in the country to now suddenly be saved by unions alone without the full support of the public is a risky plan.

Are you serious? This is a profoundly disappointing post from you.
Unions are by far the best positioned to lead us in COLLECTIVE ACTION. Name the time and place and I promise you thousands of non-union workers will be there. But we cannot organize ourselves in a meaningful way here. Half a million non-union accountants and plumbers and engineers and chefs and lawyers and mechanics and receptionists and truck drivers could skip work and assemble in each city/town and it won't mean as much as targeted action from 5000 union workers. But we can do both. But we sure as #### won't if unions don't make the next move here.
This is the best chance you've ever had to prove the value of unions. It may be your last chance. Are you really shrinking from this moment?
