This vote was not so much an issue of working conditions as it was a seniority issue. The NO vote sent a strong message to the CIRB and to management and also to our very own union. FIX the problem so we can live with the merger. AC will not sink because of this issue, it will continue to grow simply because the market is good right now. Wether or not AC will fly 777/787 or used something or other, our seats will be filled and yes . life goes on. If the seniority issue does not get resolved (which I doubt) many pilots will have to bite the bullet.
