ALPA Canada represents 8 carriers in Canada if I remember correctly. Good luck to any Cargojet folks who try to climb the aviation ladder to get a job at any of those carriers if their name is on that list. I'm not sure what ties the IBT have in Canadian aviation, but rest assured that the names of the damned will be known to all who matter if a job is concerned.
Cargojet is considered the top of the ladder for a lot of its employees, a career job. To be flying on a '67 there you would have to be fairly senior. Have you checked the starting wages for any of those ALPA carriers in Canada? Moving to practically any other airline in Canada would be a serious step backwards and a 30 - 40% pay cut. I don't think this list is too much of a worry for these people.

The threats and intimidation, instead of educating and dialogue, will definitely bring people in line with your point of view.

Keep up the good work.
