All I have to say is with any decision in life with a commitment, if you have doubts you say NO- that goes to marriage, a house, new car, etc. This is the next 5 years and impacts your future- there is no reason to just say "yes" because you are unsure what happens if you say "no". There is a vote of "yes" or "no" because it's all part of the process. If this passes and everyone walks around saying "I voted no" it will be ugly.

It is being taken care of.

If anyone has a specific question before we can get it out call the MEC Hotline at 1-877-MEC-CJC1

I will be ugly regardless, there is no easy solution. That is one of the problems.
You make great points, hopefully the same points can be expressed to those that need some clarity. The future is going to change regardless, the yes vote will stay forever for this well polished turd.

Well I have seen enough of the TA...and I will gladly vote NO!!!! We've come too far and waited too long to cave in now. I think the roadshow in DTW is gonna turn into a town hall meeting i.e. people standing up and voicing their opinions.

The same thing that always happens, it will pass by a 60%+ margin and then you won't find a single pilot that voted "yes"
