    UBCJA overrides rejected contract in Alberta and signs concessionary agreement behind closed doors. - posted by d@ve, CMAW weblog
    Representative democracy at work - duh! just more reasons for Canadian autonomy. Click the images to read this typical McCarron shit: to collect air miles secretly sign a new contract and kill the double time to match the non-union and un-union CLAC-heads in the Oil Patch. The UBCJA theory is that if more Local 1325 members had voted they would have voted FOR the agreement so it wasn't really a real vote but a protest vote, so Lets' Make a Deal with the company.
