AGREED, this 18th day of December, 2012. Joint contract date.
October 1, 2010 Founding date of combined Corp.
Hmmmmm 2 years, yep that was rushed into and if I remember correctly it took a Labor Relations Board help to make it happen.
Short memories I guess.
Two years start to finish isn't that long RG and on what date did we actually start earnest negotiations between all 3 parties anyways? I'll bet it wasn't the full two years as you're alluding. We should have and could have negotiated longer but some folks wanted an agreement at any cost hence the irony of our MEC's statement.
