just look at the stuff coming out from the company, things are going well but it sounds like you (and I) and worried about a double dip and I think that is not an environment that would have yielded a full up TA to date. Could it have been done now? sure, but we are still less than 2 years from the 06 CBA amendable date, however we are now less than 9 months from section 6 now so I am looking forward to the new opportunities ahead for our Union to further address all of the important things remaining.

i respect your no vote reasons, but your no vote or my yes vote really mean nothing right now. what matters is our next vote.
