I'm blown away that so many folks voted no to millions of $ of pay/retirement because they were mad about $30K. So dumb.
Somehow the CN MEC/PM NC took the polling data from the pilots and reintrepreted it as "let the company do anything they want to the contract as long as we can get any sort of increase to the pension, but only for one time and never more, and only for pilots currently on the property" and then they promised to step down if the vote showed that they truly did misintrepet it, which it ultimately did, but yet they ultimately did not.
