B.C. workers told to stay on picket lines By MARK HUME, Globe and Mail
"I want to be perfectly clear what the union is instructing members to do. You are to respect the protest lines, until we decide that you should go back to work," Chris Allnutt, business manager of the HEU, told several hundred pickets gathered outside Vancouver General Hospital to hear the union's response to the government.
His announcement was greeted by loud cheers and chants of, "General strike, general strike."
Mr. Allnutt didn't issue a call for a general strike himself, but he alluded to it by asking other unions and members of the public to join the HEU protest lines.------------------------------------------- posted 7:24 AM :: reference link ::
