Anti-Vale graffiti scribbled on rock cuts

The big picture looks different doesn't it? Vale isn't going anywhere and they are the ones manipulating the contract situation to their PR and financial benefit.
So you tell me who is really screwing who here.
Vale can give parity at anytime but wouldn't be able to offer work and that would still do nothing for the potential viloence or market demand.

Now, go give yourself a big pat on the back and think you just schooled someone on what he already knows. The gist of this thread is in how 6500's bully tactics within the community have lost them the support of the community. Inco? It's always been the bad guy in Sudbury - what with the smell of hell all over the town - and its donations for libraries, arenas, hospitals, universities. What has 6500 done - besides pick miner pockets in its effort to bleed a company white.
The union sent assholes out to do stupid **** or it was just stupid assholes?
Now I know you're really dreaming.

Are you saying the union sent those guys out to do stupid ****? Yes or no?
What would the violence and jealousy in Sudbury be like if each and every person working for Vale had to negotiate their own contract?
Could they afford the lawyer bills involved yearly?

I can't make unfounded accusations. That's the Union's job. That they have goons in their membership whose mentality leads to threats, assaults, damage to private property and spray-painting graffiti on rocks is no surprise. That 6500 wanted to block the main access to Sudbury Regional Hospital and the fire hall to hold a demonstration rally tells me how much they really give a damn for the community. There are NO good guys.
What's stopping me? Maybe the fact you edited them in while I was responding.
Did I say they HAVE goons? Maybe a course in basic reading comprehension might be of interest to you ... if that sounds like goons in the membership. Your spin. Your problem.
Did you see somewhere that I claimed to be Jo-Jo? How in Hell could anyone know what contacting employees would do. Among the contractors who do exist and work those mines, there is no jealousy or violence. The lions share of people underground are contractors - electricians, rock bolters, service techs.
What lawyer bill? Again, you're asking of a psychic ability I don't claim to have ... and looking even sillier in the process.
All were one time uniojn mine jobs. Production is about the only union division left out of production, water, electric, and air.
The private contractor decides what his employees get not the employee. How many contractors give raises after renegotiating a new deal?
All that I know of.
Man.... You should see the Samurai my son-in-law got with his signing bonus ;-)
Isn't it time for you to respond to some questions as posed in previous posts?

What I find funny about 6500 is that they always preach community support, community support, and so on. Such as shopping at local businesses, keeping the money made from wages in Sudbury. But yet, these very same preachers freely shop at non-local (even non canadian) places such as Sears, Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Lowe's just to name a few. The money spent from their wages not only doesn't stay in the community, it doesm't even stay in the country. But when the money spent does stay in this country, it's spent at non local shops and automobile dealerships.
If 6500 really wants 'community support' like they constantly cry out, then they should practice what they preach. Such a "do as we say not as we do" mentality.

Do you shop at places such as Sears, Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Lowe's just to name a few or you avoid them like the plague and shop at Giant Tiger, CDN Tire, Homo Hardware?
No petros, I shop at my local businesses.
Hey Johnny. Check out this little vid, go to youtube and type sudbury is small. These are the people who want (but demand would be a more appropriate word) us to support them.
Off topic: how do I link a vid from youtube to a post on this site?
