    Two Air Canada unions delay vote plans, waiting for information By JOHN PARTRIDGE, The Globe and Mail
    The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, Air Canada's largest union and the first to reach a cost-cutting pact -- worth $35.7-million -- has been the most adamant about wanting to see information on all the deals.

    Dave Ritchie, who heads the IAM in Canada, said yesterday that he is not willing to schedule a road show to explain the deal to the approximately 11,500 Air Canada technical, ground service and clerical workers it represents until it has seen the package and is convinced all parties are sharing the pain of the cuts to the same degree.
