RE:JJ Troll 👿 . Bwahahahaa Win Win amicable deal or an imposed Final Binding Arbitration Deal .. yeeeeeee haaaaw... the public and customers are not supporting the Hudeous ALPA BS
My comments here are regarding the rail workers. You said "final binding arbitration" was going to end it. I disagree and have a statement from Lisa Raitt to support this posted below. This is important because it will give some indication of what will, or could, happen in 3 weeks with AC/ALPA.
Lisa Raitt, who served as labour minister in the government of former prime minister Stephen Harper, said referring the dispute to the CIRB won't instantly end the work stoppage. She said the companies and the union first have to agree to binding arbitration.
"You can try to get the parties to agree to binding arbitration. Maybe you can write to the CIRB and ask them to impose binding arbitration… but there's no way a minister can write a letter and say that everyone goes back to work and I'm sending you to binding arbitration," she said.
"If you find a lawyer who can tell you that it's possible [for the minister to order the parties into arbitration], then I wish I had their advice 15 years ago. But as far as I'm concerned, you aren't able to do that."
