CBC is reporting that Ontario PC leader Tim Hudak has dropped the mandatory representation, voluntary dues policy for union membership from his party program. It’s nice to know that he figures it’s so unpopular as to hurt his chances at being the next premier.
Of course, sense, decency and justice wouldn’t enter into his thinking as lord knows he has enough other loopy ideas wholly deprived of same. People should still consider what a horrible mess he would make of Ontario if ever he were elected premier. And certainly unions shouldn’t consider themselves safe by any means.
Are they still going to subsidize farmers who donate to food-banks? And what about nurses and police unions? Fire-fighters and corrections officers unions? Does the conservative way mean no unions are good, or just ours on the low end of the scale?
