He didn't...
http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/westjet ... -1.3109821"Having a union as your exclusive bargaining agent would have a significant impact on the nature of your employment and the way the company and employees interact with each other," Saretsky said in the email.
In a document attached to the email, WestJet says that a union cannot guarantee anything, including the terms of employment, current wages and profit sharing and the employee share purchase plan.

I agree.
Now is the time to work together and unify as a group.

I want to die like my grandfather did, peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming in terror like his passengers...

Is the WPPA going to let that happen?
The impression I get is "union or bust".

Time to get the old WJ way back in the airline. Time to be HAPPY.highlander wrote:The saddest part here isn't that the vote went No or even Yes. The saddest part is that 55 said No while 45 said Yes. This is a split- and shows that the pilot group is quite divided.
Now is the time for the pilot group to unite. How- that is the real question
Make a video like this for the airline. It is the Westjetty way.

I flew on these guys once about 10 year back, but in the ATR on an inter-island flight.
But I sure would be HAPPY as well to go from an ATR to a 777.

Watching this unfold with a tad bit of interest, there will no doubt be subtle repercussions against those who pushed for certification especially with what could be seen as a close vote. I mean the WJ culture has been called into question (because of that close showing, clearly a reasonable portion were not content), MGT and those who thought certification wasn’t a great idea (they won) will certainly remember. That is the nature of us human beasts, to suggest otherwise is pure folly.pelmet wrote:Time to get the old WJ way back in the airline.
