News on Air Canada’s ALPA agreement

[Slick Goodlin]

A Canadian majority government is just a four year elected dictatorship. I’m not apathetic towards the policies involved but the folks who believe their favourite party leader is their best friend and saviour of the country are in for disappointment.

Politics should be a boring procedural slog, leave it to the cult leaders to pander and promise the world.

I’ll try to keep this simple.

Trudeau Sr bankrupted your country in the 1970’s with reckless spending that took decades to partially recover from.

Canadians liked that so much, they elected Trudeau Jr repeatedly to again spend recklessly and drive everyone into the poorhouse. Again.

If you liked the last 9 years, vote for Fidel’s offspring again. If not, vote for someone else.

Sure looks like the senior pilots threw the junior ones under the bus. It is not a good look when just the pay bump for the top guys is more than the entire salary for a new hire.

Be interesting to see if it gets voted down. Every AC pilot I know thinks the CA is dog poop.

How? All anyone outside the negotiations team has done so far is answer survey questions for which I’d love to see a scatter plot of the results. I bet they’re wild. The membership hasn’t done anything to anyone yet, that will be up to a vote next month.

For the record I stand to get more of a raise than a first year pilot will make and I’m very, very junior. I wonder how much I’d have to give back to get the new hires and people not on property what they want.
