Canadian Auto Workers or CAW reaches a deal with General Motors or GM.
I watched the press conference on CBC Newsworld http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2009/03/08/caw-gm.html where the president of CAW was announcing the deal and he went on to say that he approached GM before their contract was up and he went on to talk about the details before the membership even heard about it.
CAW President Ken Lewenza went onto to say that this union had to accept significant sacrifices and the union membership will vote on this later this week
With all the money that CAW is getting in union dues you would think that he might get some advice on how to conduct a proper press conferance. Ken should have asked Buzz Hargrove he has a lot of experience in this area.
Then Ken went onto say that he took this initiative to impress the Conservative government like that would really happen.
Canada still has to wait to see if the American government will let GM go into bankruptcy protection because we have to remember that it was President Obama that said that there should only be two car companies in America.
