The article does at least seem to indicate that the corp's next move is "back to the bargaining table" and not a lock-out, at least not yet.

Ah yes our dock cranes are limited to 10,000 lbs, but we do bring in portable commercial cranes for the bigger boats one day in the fall (in fact it is on 25 Oct).

We were out for a #sail today on the #Ottawa River. It was 15°C with winds that gusted from 5-22 kts from SW-SE.

Well by their incorporation, Crown Corps cannot declare bankruptcy, so that won't happen, but they can be shut down, sold or have their missions re-defined by the government.

She won't be happy if there is a lock-out or if they just lose it, like they keep losing my mail.

The union now has no credibility and very little support from its members too it seems.

Missing her Canadian Tire flyer?

Let's see if there is one day of mail delivery.

Maybe, maybe not. In the past we have seen that rotating strikes often means no mail delivery.

This is an attempt by the union to save face after their members did not support the strike. They are basically done, though, no cards left.

Hahahaha. Abject surrender by the union, as many of their members opposed the strike. Now let's see if Canada Post locks them out. There is no point in having them at work and being paid, since all the customers have long ago fled and rotating strikes means little mail will get delivered.
