Getting almost as good a deal as their American counterparts with little effort just think what Canadian workers could have gained if they actually tried.

I was raised in the UAW, then CAW. And man, comparing the modern UAW to Unifor is really sad. Unifor is so weak in its negotiating stance I could only imagine what Bob White would say about it.

If it wasn’t so sad, it’d be funny. The CAW broke away from the UAW because of real and serious corruption in the UAW which lead to really bad deals for workers. It’s like Unifor is doing the same thing, but without the corruption - just complacency and incompetence.
