How our scope penalty money would be used. It was supposed to come to us, instead it went to a fund for retiree health care whether we wanted it to or not. Not a huge deal at face value ($300 or so I think). At the time I had no problem with it but it was obviously a precendent setting move where the MEC told the members that they know better than they do about what is best for them. No vote, no poll, no say. Just like now.
Thanks for refreshing my memory. Didn't p1ss me off then, but based on current events perhaps that needs to be addressed.
