Being foreign carriers could make RJ whipsaw look like child's play.
It could, and we need to prepare for that. However I'm not too worried about the labor laws in the EU countries or Canada. Anyway US airlines have bases overseas. It can be done, we just have to force the issue contractually. Now, before its happened, is by far the best time to get such protections from the company, when they are 100% free. If the company balks, we know their intentions.
