Union wants to see books.
MONTREAL) Quebecs biggest labour federation wants to see the books of a McDonalds in suburban St-Hubert that shut down shortly
before emlployees expected to be unionized. The Quebec Federation
of Labour says it would consider investing money from its Solidarity Fund to reopen the restaurant if the outlet is viable,so it could save
the jobs.The investment would be conditionl on acceptance of a union
at the St-Hubert uotlet making it the only McDee's in North America.
The offer is a velvet glove before the union unsheathes the steel fist
of actions such as a continent-wide boycott. "We're giving them a
chance to accept once and for all that young people have a right to
be unionized" the federation president told a news conference on
Tuesday.
Good reading and G'day James BASE727(m.c.p.)
