@copperheadmarine Are you an idiot?? In my comment I stated the loss of buying power will take the decision away from consumers. If you dont make enough to afford Made in Canada then you dont have a choice.

@darryl2154 Yeah we are brain washed into thinking we are the best alright...From it pounded in our heads at school and our radio and the CBC...If you want to keep believing that I recomend not traveling around the rest of the world...

@mfornelos Well you know how it is? Somehow no job is better than A job?

@allahisgod1000 So you cant be trusted to not buy chinese on your own? Maybe the govt needs to make your decisions for you? I think we should do away with corporations!....Oh wait...what about all the people who work for corporations? Do we want the Govt to take them over? Yeah look at all the things to do with money that the govt runs that are effitient...Oh wait I can't think of any...I think socialism is the way to go! That way the sorriest worker in Canada gets paid the same as the hardest?

@LLB9977 Socialism?

after you protest i would look for another job instead of wasting ALL your time protesting..some people just cant seem to cut their loses and move on. it's called ADAPTING. it's no different from telling your cheating wife of 10+years to go fuck herself and find a different wife..

@GSkid2000 Could not have said it any better!

The guy talks about shareholders getting $330 million a quarter is greedy ?!?! How about employees buying shares so they can share in the profits? The company does well, you do well.

Greedy is demanding the money on the front end (that being high wages) instead of getting the money on the back end (profit sharing). There should be a base pay for a job and the rest should be based on how profitable the company was.

This forces workers to be accountable and encourage efficiency on their part.

I'm glad to see this happen. You talk about greed?!!? Union greed is the worst!

If someone will do their job for half their wages, that's the free market. Do these same union people think about if they are giving a fair price for goods when THEY buy things?!? Hell no! They shop around for the cheapest price when they buy a house, car and other goods and services. Caterpillar is only doing the same but are somehow "bad" when they do it.

Union Hypocrites!
