We crack down on illegal goods coming in then they will just move onto assisting local criminals to steal legal dvd players and digital cameras!

Lol, impact on dirty money and illegal activity, is more like it.


Now is the perfect time to see what is really in some of those containers.

Agree to the wage demands but implement a criminal record checks, anyone with any convictions for an indictable offense to be terminated immediately and all future hires must pass and maintain the same check.

No way the union would sign it but it would be fun to propose and hear the pandering on why it's not acceptable.

Now that would be entertaining. And would probably make a few of these douches think before acting.

A tentative deal is reached between the longshoremen and their employer. No more lockout.

FWIW we have often shipped commercial goods to port in WA because the prices and service from ports in BC are terrible.

Reading the article in the OP, what exactly are they striking for? I assume a raise but it doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere.

Job security over proposed automation. And yes, probably more money as with every single other strike.

Striking to attempt to not be replaced by machines that can't strike?
