  • And remember that ,"Carney pointed out that Canada will be reducing its immigration numbers in the future. Even though Canada has always accepted new immigrants, the increase in the last few years has caused some problems, mainly in housing and access to public services." Source

  • The Division of Family and Children Services has said the agency’s goal is reunification, but Telfeyan said charging low-income families child support is a “perverse” practice that “delays the outcome that everyone wants.”

    Reunification my ass. Almost every state's version of CFS uses it to make money, one way or another.

  • Gilles LeVasseur, a professor of law and management at the University of Ottawa, told CBC News that ignoring a CIRB notice to get back to work and the bargaining table is unlawful.

    Individual union members could be fined up to $1,000 a day and unions could face fines of up to $100,000 a day for refusing to comply.

    But to enforce the order, LeVasseur said, either Air Canada or the CIRB has to file it in federal court — something the CIRB said "would be unduly punitive and not conducive to harmonious labour relations and constructive collective bargaining."

    LeVasseur said when the CIRB announced it would not file the order in federal court, it made it easy for flight attendants and the union to refuse to comply.

    Going forward, LeVasseur said, the unions know they have the advantage. He said that in future, the CIRB could go to court to enforce a Section 107 order, but that might just result in opposition to the provision rising to the next level.

    "Other unions may say, 'Well, let's put it all together and make it a national strike for all these unions,' he said. "That's the danger."

    Good. The government has been put on notice. Let's see who blinks first.

  • I moved away in 2011, but the few times I've been back it seems they still employ locals.

    But there has also been an influx of immigrants who've been 'encouraged' to live there, so it may be 6-of-1 half-a-dozen-of-the-other.

  • Montreal police said in a statement that the security of citizens, police officers and demonstrators was compromised that night. They would not share details about their crowd control techniques, citing "strategic reasons" and "ongoing investigations."

    "Strategic decisions were made taking into account public safety issues, particularly due to the presence of thousands of people in Place Émilie-Gamelin and Ste-Catherine Street as part of the Pride festivities," the statement from the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) said.

    "Strategic" my ass. The truth is that this is just another example of cop's overreach.

    And as always, ACAB.
