That was the point of my argument. Vast majority of it is petty BS that individual employees have little say over. Instead of pretending certain people are holier than thou, insulting and generally being immature, everybody should work together. Jazz pilots may have one of the better contracts with AC, but instead of insulting fellow pilots, fellow AC Express pilots, work together so SR, GGN, EVAS and Jazz can have improved and more equal WAWCON.mbav8r wrote:goingnowherefast wrote:Go fly for Jazz if you want to be forced out of your base and your home town, selling out new hires for the PML, low starting pay, the list goes on
You'd have to be a little simple to not realize the cause of everything you listed, the base was closed because all of the Jet flying out of YYZ is being transferred to GGN and SR, the new contract you mentioned, same cause. We had NO leverage, if we said no what do you think would have happened?
SR pilots better be careful, if you get too costly, well we all know what happens!
At the end of the day it's all controlled by Air Canada, either directly or indirectly. Air Canada isn't making their regional carriers look very appealing.
There's also other options to the Air Canada system. Porter for example, as discussed in this thread.
