Union Executive Kinnear Should Resign.......


TTC employees strike
Workers vote 65% against deal

First of all I would like to see how many union members actually voted. This would give us a better insight into how many of the members require reality therapy. I am sure the majority of the riders that ride the TTC to get to jobs that put food on the table and a roof over their head and a loss of a day's pay is a crisis might think the following is generous......

  • Term: three years, expiring March 31, 2011
  • Wages: April 1, 2008 -- 3 per cent; April 1, 2009 -- 3 per cent; April 1, 2010 -- 3 per cent
  • Vision Care: $300 every two years; plus $50 for exams
  • Dental Care: major restorative, including implants up to $2,500
  • Orthodontic: up to $4,000 (50 per cent TTC coverage)
  • Physio & Chiro: $1,000 max ($35 per visit)
  • Long-term Disability: $2,550 max, per month
POINT OF VIEW: TTC strike a crime against Torontonians
Updated: 5 minutes ago
A knee-jerk strike by the Amalgamated Transit Union -- hijacking the TTC while the union implodes -- is a crime against the people of Toronto.
Full Point of View

Workers vote all day on TTC deal
TTC workers were expected to ratify a tentative deal yesterday during an all-day voting process, despite a group of workers grumbling about the agreement.

I am sure these union members didn't put pressure on any of their fellow union members
