Re: Recall of MEC Chair & Vice Chair

You guys are the best at missing the point... it's no fucking wonder we suck. I believe there was more going on behind the scenes than just the TA. The Chair & Vice Chair had lost the room and lost most of the pilots. All the new MEC Executives come from the recent battle so experience is still the...

Re: Recall of MEC Chair & Vice Chair

Now that it's done, it's time to move on. But the motions were bullshit and it wasn't 80%. YYZ was something like 47 - 45 on the vote and the Yea vote was mostly made up of proxies. Most of the people actually in the room voted against the motion. If you actually canvassed the membership you will f...

The same status reps that brought forward this deal?

Re: So how actually is at the other side of the fence?

Lol... You do realize it will be a Conservative Majority government right? We ain't getting a chance like we just did, ever again. The fact there hasn't been a full on uprising to this simple fact is shocking. The lack of Accountability and how steak dinners are still being grilled up on the back of...

Re: So how actually is at the other side of the fence?

Even if Aerokavo's revisionist microeconomics lesson was right, it still doesn't explain how in a unionized environment, a union AGREED to having lower starting pay than Flair

Re: 67% yes

44e11a7c01c58dbef28d750744d92edf.jpg The hilarious thing about this meme is the complete lack of awareness of what proper legacy airlines have in quality of life, bonus plans, retirement contributions, scheduling rules, 100% Deadhead, training pay, sim pay, commuting but most importantly respect.

Re: Does ALPA ever strike?

Interesting...after reading that and learning that ALPA is trying to grow the MCF like it is a retirement fund I've learned that something like this is actually in the early stages of being looked into/evaluation in Canada. Spoke to senior leadership at ALPA Canada and this is exactly what they sai...

Re: Does ALPA ever strike?

So...when was the strike fund last used?

Has it EVER been used in Canada...ever?

And....follow up question...how many contracts have been negotiated without striking from ALPA?

Let's compare that so say other unions...do they go say 0 for 40 in the last 14 years?

Re: Does a Yes Vote mean Air Canada Pilots aren't World Class?

World Class Airline Pilots shouldn't: - be paid 50% to deadhead - have starting pay less than Flair - have 4 years of flat pay - be the only pilot group without a proper bonus plan - be giving up scope concessions - have the worst average daily guarantee of any legacy airline, and you get that in 20...

Is ALPA a bust in Canada?

Another mediocre at best contract in Canada. Better labor laws and ALPA has yet to strike nor get monumental gains...is this Canada Board just a total flop? Jazz signed to a 17 years deal. Largest hammer a union has is a strike and these geniuses locked themselves up to then be scoped out by PAL Aer...
