Unbelievable.
Michelin has gone all out over the years to keep unions out of it's
three tire plants here in Nova Scotia.
Now, our slightly labour friendly New Democratic Party gov't wants to
introduce legislation that will have a 3rd party arbitrate a '1st'
contract when the workers want to unionize. ( only when the two
parties can't come to an agreement)
Michelin had their North American president in yesterday crying about
this new law and suggesting that future investment could dry up.
Kinda makes me ashamed that I just bought 4 new tires from them on
Monday.

Are you dissatisfied with the performance of the tires? They get pretty good ratings. Perhaps they
are trying to maintain a high quality tire at a reasonable price - something difficult to do with a
huge union influence, as our auto manufacturers discovered.

You see what unions will do to business in Canada? Dry it up, that's what.

Funny, Canadian manufacturing is dying, almost a million jobs lost in 7
years...pretty high for a country of 33 million. Most manufacturing
left services government, mines or oil. Even Government Motors is much
smaller.

As for unions, most are government of one level or another. And being
legislated into back to work and arbitration. No longer allowed the
extortion tactics of the past. Most are now neutered.

Unions are weak here, many actually get paid less than non-union as in
union, you have extra non-value added overhead.

I would say come on up and try it, but your criminal record would
prevent that.

Corporations and corporationists view worker as nothing more than a form
of chattel, and that capital is a more valuable commodity than labor.
Slowly but surely as the rich continue to suck the lifeblood out of the
economy, the workers will realize they outnumber the capitalists and
they're change things.
