I am part of a union for the third time and I agree…. unions have been captured and are as corrupt as the things they are pretending to defend…. I have had enough… thanks for writing this.
First of all, you should state all facts as you didn't with the PIPSC union dues increase. You were just trying to use it to fit whatever narrative you are trying to push.
"far exceeding inflation" should also have included a point about how there wasn't an increase in the last 7 years. With wages increased at PIPSC HQ, as all members have had contract increases, it was reasonable to fund those as well.
While a conservative gov't was a greater likelihood at that point, which historically would come with job reductions, that wasn't a reason for the increase (speculation).
I don’t care who is elected here, but don't be as bad as a particular politician that you may be defending in your post. It will lead to a higher dismantling of jobs. Isn't it a unions job to do the most they can to save jobs?
Why is PSAC engaging in election interference?
Whose funds are they using to do so?
Another page out of the Liberal election play book.
These people have absolutely zero integrity.
Go Pierre Poilievre...
