How so?
I think the question of what ACPA would do if this wasn't challenged by Air Canada pilots is very relevant. Everybody seems to want to blame those pilots who issued this challenge, but nobody including ACPA has stopped for a minute to think that this would be happening anyway. That was the point of my previous post and is why our current strategy makes absolutely no sense. If Air Canada pilots were not challenging this I would hope ACPA would look at the situation and prepare for the coming change as their responsibility as our representatives would dictate. But that's not what they're doing now is it?
So, what do you think would have happened given everything else that's going on? Can you seriously say no other Air Canada employee group would have made their own challenge. How about any of the other 800,000+ other federally regulated employees? Would the federal government not be moving to eliminate mandatory retirement?
