At my union meeting tonight, I discovered that the Communications, Energy, and Paperworkers Union of Canada's Saskatchewan components (of which my local is a member - as well as everybody who works for SaskTel) are withdrawing all financial support and otherwise from the NDP in the province. We will be the first union to do so but others will surely follow.
To me, it's hilarious how the only reason they won in the last election was because of the huge support from organized labour, and they haven't done a lick of work for them in return - no most available hours law, little or no increase in pay (0%/0%/1%), etc.
Sorry, folks - you can't have your cake and eat it, too!
