This repeated implication with Cato makes for a good sound bite to the Polar crews, but it would mean so much more if it came from the mouths of those that do not have the blood of past Atlas crew jobs dripping from their hands. When the tide turns, how quickly one forgets what happened.

The same implications can easily be made of Polar when those Atlas jobs and A/C moved to Polar and the later requests by the Polar MEC for relief from the Atlas struck work agreement.
Polar reeks of complicity with Mr. Cato themselves, but we realize that it is more greed (Polars-we have scope so we get to keep the ill gotten gains forever) than complicity of the Polar group with Cato. Mr. Cato just knows how to throw the food out in front of two hungry dogs to watch the fight begin. There is no intended complicity on either part. Just greed for the individual group at best. Not in standing with Trade Unionism at all.
