    United Steelworkers support Air Canada unions Canada NewsWire
    'The unionized employees at Air Canada have devoted their working lives to the airline, and have made the tough, but responsible, decision to give up hundreds of millions of dollars in wage and work restructuring concessions to ensure the survival of the airline.' said Fraser.

    'Now, they are being blackmailed to also give up their hard earned right to a financially secure retirement. The United Steelworkers will support these workers and their unions unconditionally in their battle to maintain their pensions.'
