It seems this will need to last for a bit longer than originally planned. Political party and pressure group. Feel free to join our pressure group or party.
Our platform/whatever you want to call it
OCTranspo sucks
OCTranspo bus drivers are lazy and should get back to work
OCTranspo drivers stop their bus to get an hamburger at McDonalds. And you want a salary increase for that?
ATU=epic fail. Damn reds.
OCTranspo bus drivers get good pay and should be grateful they have a job. Back to work.
Bus drivers who block the entry to parking lots by hardworking city employees should be sued and fined
Ensure a minimum service of the most important and necessary bus lines (in a reduced schedule) during strikes
The lazy bus drivers blocks needy people from getting to work, hospitals etc.
The city government sucks for a cheap attempt at cash saving on the backs of hardworking people
OCTranspo and the City of Ottawa government is made of fail
And in the words of an anonymous graffiti artist: OC ASSHOLES.
What the union wants?
Cash.
They rejected a raise of 7%! I'm pro-union but there is a limit and they crossed it. They said than the problem was the schedule's magagement. I agree with OCTranspo than the actual system is problematic. I read than old workers can choose when they work and some do too many hours and they are paid overtime.
They are protesting against the closing of a breach of the system.
They are the reason why people are more suspicious and hate unions.
