Sorry, I should be more precise. I mean you can't post on Brian Lilley or Ezra Levant's video rants. They spew a bunch of bile and don't allow anyone to respond to them.

I think it depends on the level of negativity.

Its been said before concerning the anger posted against PAFSO for expressing the same democratic rights as those who are immigrating here to get. Government employees are actually far more concerned about the level of service provided to the public then government is. Especially this government. Deleted over 30000 public service positions already with another 25000 set to be targeted. They have closed VO's abroad without adjusting staff levels at the remaining VO's. They undermine the democratic process where ever it suits them. Yet a good portion of those who post here think that the government is in the business of fairness and has offered a fair deal to PAFSO and they are withholding services only due to greed. There is no moral compass in this government. The sooner people realize this the sooner we can all protest the actions of this government along side PAFSO and every other union.

Well said, and for anyone that doubts these statements, they would do well to look at the bs like CETA, other "Free Trade" deals with South America, Bill C-377, and a lot of the "Public Safety" bills. This is an unabashed attack on Unions, yes, but it is also an attack on Canadians.

And if you think I am an alarmist, that is fine, read some of the small print in CETA. This is a government that has turned words like public safety, economic down turn, public private partnerships, into to catch phrases that have been manipulated to make you think the sky is falling. And stomping on unions, and selling off patent rights, selling water and mineral rights for pennies on the dollar to global conglamorats is the way to a new utopia by the "I say so Corp" know presently as the Harper Conservatieves.

It is funny how the big boys on Bay Street, can drive companies and Canadians into the ground, and then get a hand out to save their companies, while at the same time lining their pockets with our cash, and then turn around and do the same damned thing over, and hardly a person in this country bats an eye at the CEO's or the government for their little game of F-U and F-Me, but holy S**t, and union guy stands up and says bullshit to four years of zeros, and people are ready to form a lynch mob.

I work in a public sector union, I have not had a raise in four years, I am facing the prospect of a provincial government saying I deserve two years at least of the same, I am right on the cusp, of falling below the "Living Wage" working a full time 40 hour a week Union job.

I am not sure where the union bashers are getting their info or opinions, but it is time they pulled their heads out of their arses, and started smelling the roses for what they really are.

Maybe they would be happy if we all made 10.00 an hour?
 
This is exactly we are going under Harper's reign:

I love the U of T Prof.....everything he has he owes to a unionized faculty. How much do Professors make a year now? $115000/year and summers off.

Spring break, paid educational days, sabbaticals, a pension that apparently is a huge draw on the universities resources. Medical, dental, eye glasses, and I am sure a handful of different therapies are covered as well. And they didn't get those out of the goodness of the government or the universities heart.

It would be interesting to know, how many of these people (union bashers) came from homes where they had parents or grand parents that where union members and helped fund their educations and attitudes.
 
Does anyone else think this government is simply delaying the inevitable, and that they know that eventually the officers will get their big raises? This is basically a childish move by the government to temporarily punish the union without any regard to the fact it is screwing with our family's future?
