What if, just what if, CUPW's represenation is the one that suggested to Canada Post that strikes would be rotating, only to decide to pivot to full strike action? Given that neither of us work for Canada Post nor their union, I think that has to be considered an equal possibility.
Then it would be really stupid and irresponsible for Canada Post to mislead its customers into thinking that there was no possibility of a full strike. Pretty straightforward.
Quote:
Considering the strike notice made no mention of it, Locke should be forgiven for taking any claims written before the strike occurred as suspect. It just would have been nice if those assh-les had done rotating strikes as was previously stated too.
Well if Locke changes his position then absolutely he should be forgiven. Do you wanna ask him if he’s gonna do that?
As for the Union doing rotating strikes as was “stated”, they didn’t state that. I’m sorry you were mislead by Canada Post’s statement but between yourself, Canada Post and CUPW, the union are the only ones who didn’t play a role in that. So I’m not sure why you’re so insistent on blaming them for it.

I'm on no one's side except the "get the f-ck back to work" side, whatever that needs in order to be accomplished. Personally, I hope the arbitrator rams a compromise so far up their asses that they get a funny taste in their mouths.
Have you considered telling Canada Post that you’re upset about how they handled this and that it’s making you question whether or not to continue being a customer of their’s? That might be more productive.
Yeah, I knew that, should have said "an" rather than "the", implying that one might be leveraged to end the stoppage at some point, instead of suggesting that one is already in place.
What do you even mean by one might be leveraged to end the stoppage? An arbitrator isn’t going to be making the decision to legislate them back to work.
I get that you’re frustrated with the situation, I’m sure the people you’re vilifying are too. But venting your frustrations by throwing in rage statements that aren’t rooted in reality isn’t going to fix much.

Canada Post and the CUPW have had collective bargaining spats handled by an arbitrator, mostly recently in 2020.
I’m not saying back-to-work legislation, I’m saying get the two sides to come to a fair compromise on each side’s demands to end the strike. I don’t really know (or care) about the actual process, I’m a pissed off customer and this is having a huge impact. The people I’m “vilifying” are literally everyone involved.
The anti-NATO riots in Montreal really are a perfect grab-bag of every strain of loony radicalism and idiocy in the country. You have pro-Putin right-wingers rallying alongside Green Party anti-Capitalists. The Concordia students union calling NATO’s operations against Serbia an imperialist war crime. And pro-Palestinian rioters hoping to gain public sympathy by burning cars, while a Second Cup franchisee who ran the location at the Montreal Jewish Hospital has her franchise revoked after being seen giving a Nazi salute. It’s beyond parody.

There should be awards. Most idiotic woman in Canada?
Trudeau was right when he said it’s who we are.
Have we learned nothing over the past few weeks?

Look...Netflix paved the way.
Get her in a ring against Didulo and make them fight to the death...in some sort of Dome...perhaps with Thunder.
And I know the motto is 'Two shall enter, only one shall leave' but are we really married to that? Nobody really enforces the 'one shall leave' rule...

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
Is this where we talk about what a horrible bunch or deplorables Canadians are, like we do in the US?
Or do we just blame this on a group of stupid #######s?

Ya, no that's fair. We are well on our way to full deplorability.

Problem with Jews is they are wicked smart. Cavemen hucking rocks? So stupid.
Am I the only one who got a little chuckle watching those guys struggling to burn the Canadian flag?
Like...those things are made of nylon, they're not particularly flammable. So seeing a half dozen people with lighters struggling to light the flag on fire is actually kind of funny.

Right-Wingers have completely lost what the word "woke' actually means and what it stands for. Now, it's basically just anything that people are uncomfortable with and represents things that they don't personally approve of. It's the political NIMBYism of our time. It has become such watered-down pablum for easily manipulated people, It's just a catchphrase that people say to pretend like they have depth on politically engaging conversation.
