  1. Mentioned on another thread is kudos to the Canadian nurses unity. Boy, are they in the news today. In B.C., these nurses have been on a job action for by simply refusing all overtime and ancillary work. Now they've been LEGISLATED TO WORK THE OVERTIME!!! Incredible.

    Unfortunately, if it can happen here in B.C. Canada (and, in Nova Scotia, Canada), it can happen in the States as well. This is a case of the government negating the right of a union to negotiate for their members. Anyone remember the Air Traffic Controllers vs. Ronald Regan?
