The MEC/NC had their hands tied, they were out of leverage, and wants the word to get out that if this thing gets voted down, they will have the leverage to get us what they intended to the entire time. Obviously the Union just can't come out and say this, but I thought it was worthy of a post to see if anyone else had heard this.
