I think the MEC has already set the precident that seniority doesn't apply for training!!!!!!
How important do you feel about that little fiasco/opinion now. Our union will really have a tough time explaining how it can support lack or seniority with the "junior varsity", and support seniority with the "varsity" team! Sounds like they have really set themselves up to look bad in this case! Makes me want puke when I here about principles, and "right thing to do". Sounds like our MEC has Situational ethics.
Also, please explain the ethical clarity you feel in supporting retroactivity, our unions stance, whithout supporting it for retirees! It is/will be the same law change!
So accordingly they (maybe you) are SOL!
