I clicked thru some of the links on the website so tell me if Im wrong. It says the 777 vote last year was hijacked by a group of Original Air Canada malcontents who linked the 'No' vote to getting their seniority increased at the expense of the Canadian Pilots. How am I doing so far?

Then it says a mediator, Teplitsky, put together a seniority list last fall that favoured the 'Original Air Canada Pilots' and of course pushed the Canadian Pilots down the list further.

The trouble is that the Candian Pilots didnt even show up for the mediation becuase the whole process was illegal in their opinion. Correct so far?

Is this how the mediation process works in Canada? One party shows up, the other doesnt and its called a mediation?

Im curious what you rate your chances are at the CIRB to change the seniority list. Slim? None? Not a chance? In civilized countries thats what the chances would be but Im straying from the point.
My point is this:
If last year ACPA decided to let a 777 vote get hijacked to get better seniority at the expense of the Canadian Pilots, why would any Canadian Pilots vote against anything in the future?
I would think they would vote yes to avoid getting dragged into the seniority muck again, don't you?
