Re: Grievance update for the 285ish former Jazz pilots affected by Flow

I haven't seen this level of solidarity and engagement since 2012. This is a good warm up for the membership for the imminent big table bargaining. Yes!!! I remember that, it was something. 95% participation rate in the strike vote. 95% in favour of a strike. A unified group and a hard nosed bargai...

Re: Encore hiring Foreign Workers??

Where is JBI & Bede on this? Too busy pushing yes votes & shilling for WJ? Can you imagine ALPA allowing Delta to hire foreign workers on visas??

Re: Recall of MEC Chair & Vice Chair

She achieved far far more for AC pilots than anyone else maybe ever, and she did it in less than 2 years. ALPA, unity, pickets, and above all she raised our expectations of what we could achieve. She did but then she didn't. So we got WestJet plus 2%. An arbitrator wouldn't have given less. Minus l...
