Canadians onshore and UNIONS!

[cpdude]

As of Jan 2010 Canadians will be onshore. Which Union are they going to join? CALPA, Teamsters, CUPE? Should be interesting!:)

Well CALPA is defunct so I don't think it would be that one. Most likely ALPA. Prey to god it's not anyone else.

I want Jimmy Hoffa poppin' knee caps.

Have the boys been giving this some serious discussion...?:ok:

TO QUOTE CARTMANs MOM 'Blame Canada':}

Actually, it was Kyle's Mum who sang "Blame Canada".

Of note, Cartman sang a song about her entitled "Kyle's Mum's a Bitch"

How many of you have any actual experience with ALPA? I have better than 14 years worth and none of it was worth writing home about. It would be 21 years if I was still employed at an ALPA carrier. Let me put it this way, if you don't work for a "legacy" carrier you don't count. Never have and most likely never will, although the way things are going they will have to do more for the small fry sooner rather than later. Any Cathay subsidiary onshore in Canada won't be close to "legacy", just a nice write up in the monthly ALPO rag.

I still wouldn't cross the street to p*** on Duane Worthless if he was on fire. At least he didn't get the FAA administrator job, that prospect was downright scary. :eek:

Canadian based Cabin Crew are not required to "volunteer" for SLS.
Apparently the company approached their union (not FAU) and the response was not what CX was used to getting.

Well....... I do have my 10 year pin and they still send me the rag for free. Comes in handy when I can't get up to Costco for toilet paper. So I guess they have given me something.
