Obligatory fuck the CEOs and Shareholders
“We are bargaining. We are committed to reaching a deal. But we are saying that if that fails, the government should be ready to intervene and avoid the disruption,” - Christophe Hennebelle (Air Canada’s vice-president of corporate communications)
this is not what a company that’s negotiating in good faith does
Air Canada is not a vital service (some of the little bush airlines that are the only way in or out of remote communities might be, but not them). Believing that the government should intervene on their behalf is such excessive hubris that I can’t even.
