How can an employee group settle after a strike?

I thought Peak Leverage was before shutdown?!

And I thought the cost of the strike would come out of the package offered to the employees?!

All I know is that they better say yes or they will get minimum wage!

Should add the endless rationalization & projection by some who can't seem to come to terms with reality that this was a World Class Fail. Union reps with fingerprints on this fiasco need to go.

Air Transat issued strike notice and got better starting pay, 100% deadhead, vacation credit of 4.5 hrs, long call reserve, open time 1.5x pay, 4.5 hrs for reporting, better monthly guarantee all while not giving away their profit sharing. All while being barely profitable and negotiating during "ec...

Jesus Christ... Listen to all the hapless cry babies... "The contract is too hard" "I don't even know who the MEC chair is" "Oooh the grievance process is unfair" "The rep gave me a one word answer instead of holding my hand" "The company is dragging their feet and I blame the union for it" "I want...

Pretty hard to fly a contract that takes a labour lawyer to interpret. This contract is a pile of shit. We all know it. Pay went up. Sure. Not so much for us new hires though. It's almost by design no one knows how to "fly the contract" and then you get some sarcastic one word DART response. Pretty ...

Air Canada pilots have to pattern bargain off ULCC Flair lol No wonder the results are so shitty. I'm sure WJ will beat them too because how could they not LMAO. Air Canada pilots? No. All Canadian professional pilots have to pattern bargain off each other. There is no one group that can break away...

- Defying Section 107. - Turning unpaid work into a national cause. - Pulling more public support than any aviation worker in history. - Building unity that’s never been stronger. And you call that “no result”? LMAO FanBlade — you’ve lost the plot. No wonder you disappeared for a while. Guess realit...

Until we hit Peak Leverage then cave in and vote yes...no matter what the deal is...because...that is Peak Leverage...

Lol...I would stick to North American legacy carriers and their strategies. They got the best contracts in the world.

Flying CRJs at mainline with terrible FO wages & working conditions isn't one of them

Jazz getting common employer is the funniest April Fool's joke ever.

Well done!

How long has that thug Claude been around??

Canada brought thousands of truck drivers in through the TFW program and those guys are consummate professionals who have exemplary safety records. I am not the least bit concerned. When was the last time you saw a truck from Brampton rolled over in the ditch on the 401 or caught smuggling 300kg of...

Another profitable year for the airlines! :D Great to see the profit share cheques but have to ask, what will Air Canada pilots get with the profitability of the company? Delta is issuing $1.4 billion!! https://aviationa2z.com/index.php/2025/01/10/delta-employees-gets-five-weeks-bonus/ Profit share...

We compare ourselves to whatever is the flavor of the day. Worst case we compare ourselves to garbage men and then when they get paid more...you say "well then become a garbage man".

Really inspiring union stuff.

Does it cost Canada Post that much to go on strike? Similar to other government jobs like teachers, nurses, etc. The main expense would be labour I’d assume? With AC, there is a lot more hemorrhaging going on if a strike did occur, no? Hence, making a strike a lot more effective as the employer has...

Air Canada MEC lowered their demands 3 days PRIOR

Vastly different than nearly a month LATER

Hilarious attempt though Tango

And the real point is...they are STILL ON STRIKE

This TA was voted in yes...but not because the majority actually believed this deal was good. It was rammed down their throat worst than anything Heather Brooke ever took. There needs to be changes to the leadership if there is going to be any hope of a re-energized group in the future. Many have lo...

I was replying to the OP's actual question not your contined shitposting. Please point out one public remark, bulletin, yammer post..anything...where pilots are encouraged to work second jobs to subsidise their full-time $90,000/year (excluding pension, ESOP match, per-diem, and benefits) job? When...

If only monopoly mail service was as important as air travel. Then pilots could be allowed to strike without being sent back to work. (Sarcastic statement, both professions should be allowed to strike uninterrupted) The only pilot group in recent history to get "forced back to work" was Air Canada ...

On behalf of the Executives, I want to thank the pilots of Air Canada in their approval of this contract so we can continue to rise together. Stock is up 45% since you voted in making Air Canada pilots the laughing stock of North American aviation. The money for the billion in share buybacks had to ...

The Minister of Labour sending the Port Workers to binding arbitration shows that the Government would have intervened had there been a strike at AC. This validates the MEC's decision to let the negotiators work until the 11th hour, access the situation at that moment, and ultimately and put the TA...

Did you really think we were going to get a bonus ? I’ll take my 330CA pay ( 381/hour + 17/hour Overseas ) over the meager profit share all day long. It’s hard to hear the same rhetoric from the same muppets crying over the contract they thought slipped through their finger tips…….ugh let’s give it...

Tell me you got a PFO from Big Red without telling me you got a PFO from Big Red... They offered me the exclusive rubber dog shit Deer Lake run or the middle seat to Frankfurt while listening about the boomers Captain boat on Lake Simcoe and I said hells yesssss After bringing in ALPA to eliminate ...

Hey Air Canada pilots, Congratulations on the Q3 results. Rousseau was very excited with the deal with ALPA. So what will you be doing with your bonus from 2024 when the company is so profitable. Ha. Just kidding. You all ain't getting shit. At least the Flight Attendants will though. Losers PS Mayb...
