minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish32•1 year agoI’m willing to take a small amount of harm if it means better working conditions for people I rely on.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•1 year agoThat’s … that’s pretty Canadian, right there. Hat’s off to you.
minus-squareGrant_MlinkfedilinkEnglish-7•1 year agoI’m willing to do the same. And the port workers also need more effective negotiators willing to do the work.
minus-square@Nouveau_Burnswicklink16•1 year agoHow? Find a middle ground on the number of jobs to cut to non-union workers per year? The top four companies represent posted profits of $100, $25, $20, and $15 billion dollars. That’s a third of Canada’s expenditures.
minus-squareGrant_MlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoI am not a professional negotiator, but there MUST be a solution found without calling in the government.
minus-squarekeeb420linkfedilink8•1 year agoMaybe the companies needs to take it on the chin this time. Maybe they could use better negotiators.
minus-squareGrant_MlinkfedilinkEnglish0•1 year agoI agree. But billionaire companies are greedy and looking to gain 2 wins here.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•1 year agoHey one question: What does boot polish taste like?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-3•1 year agoI was infantry. I suspect you don’t know how we spit-polish a boot. There’s a slight variation in taste depending on brand and mixture. Did you intend to out yourself as tough-guy con chicken-hawk with that weak jab?

That’s no reason to be on their side though.
I’m absolutely NOT on the side of billionaires.
