#Subsidizing #Clearcuts.
Communities and forest workers need a new social contract, not a corporate bailout.https://watershedsentinel.ca/article/subsidizing-clearcuts/
In June, USW Local 1-1937 went on strike in Tree Farm License 64 because the company insists on hiring non-union contractors to do union work. The new TFL is held by Western Forest Products and La-Kwa sa muqw, a partnership of four Vancouver Island First Nations: Tlowitsis, We Wai Kai, Wei Wai Kum, and K’omoks.
Forest industry losses will continue because the Canadian lumber industry is barely profitable. Almost all the old growth forests are gone. The easy-to-reach, low-elevation, high-value trees were taken years ago. What’s left is the “guts and feathers,” as Wilderness Committee campaign director Joe Foy says.
It costs politicians nothing to claim that this bailout will benefit workers. But the only thing they can guarantee is a new round of austerity: cutting wages and benefits and replacing union workers with non-union contractors – the same gambit that led to the Steelworkers’ strike.

One of my favorite Sifillis Celebrities is Scabatha, who is based on my dear late friend Kelly who had a horrible skin disease that took her toes and fingers. Now thanks to my illustrator Lucas she's running happily with new hands!

What’s disgusting ?
Union busting."I'd like to say sorry. It wasn't meant to play out that way. It was just a big bloody game of chess and we were both pawns."

I'm not holding my breath for this #transportstrike by #PISTON and #Manibela #jeepney drivers and operators. The odds are just too stacked against them unfortunately. Remote classes have become a normal thing so schools can just do that with minimal disruption to education. The rest of the transport groups are pretty much #scabs and work for the government. Local governments have enough vehicles to offer free rides to commuters.
Perhaps we need a rethinking of current tactics. We may need to go a bit "dirty". :seija_coffee:
