GM talks of pulling out of Canada

Nice move on General Motor's part - threatening the CAW union by saying they'd consider pulling all operations out of Canada.

Oddly enough - now the CAW seems willing to co-operate (surprise, surprise).

Unions has it's pros and cons,without them the man would make you work for 10 bucks a hour and no benefits.
I'll always be grateful to mine,they fought Compo for me a few times and got my job back.would have cost me thousands.I won every time with them covering my back

are the wages cheaper in canada? otherwise they should just move it and start a non-union side of the company for new plant, get some US jobs going again.

help them, help the unemployed, move towards less union control.

I have been both union, and management when in telco. I can tell you there is definitely a REASON there is a need for unions. Walmart is a perfect example, and I could go on and on about the shady bullshit management would pull, plot, and try over my better part of a decade and experience.

But I digress...
