Can you tell us what is JP's plan - I'm sure it makes sense?
I have no idea what JP's plan is. Until recently, I thought both MEC's were following the same plan. If the parties felt that plan wasn't working then I expect BOTH parties to agree on a new plan. What I don't expect is for one party to change the course of the negotiations without consulting the other party.
The CAL MEC has risen to the occasion however by agreeing to support the plan by JH that will lead to a JCBA. The one caveat being that they still need to see the plan and agree that it makes sense. Is that so much to ask?
By the way, JH tipped off Jeff well before JP started "whining." The moment that JP announced HIS decision it was pretty well evident that he hadn't consulted JP. Imagine if he had consulted JP and if THEY had issued a joint statement. I believe it is called Unity.
