    CANADA SUCKS MOOSE BALLS!

  • lol at adam in the backround he looks like hes daydreaming

  • Not FAIR to to Toronto people

  • Actually I do get super ass pissed when pro athletes, many in the entertainment industry etc. and all get far more than they deserve - talent or not!

  • I don't understand why people get so pissed off that city workers get a FAIR WAGE but never get pissed off when professional athletes get millions of dollars for doing nothing useful for society! I have my priorities right! I want good paying fair jobs for all! No one needs to be paid millions of dollars and no one needs to be paid minimum wage! Fair wages for all!

    Peace. :)

  • i think that 18 sick days a year and banking them is ridiculous

    especially in a recession your going to bankrupt the city

    all the workers are crazy

    i think in the mean time they should give the jobs to all the car builders that just got laid off

    i mean there are people in the streets who would kill to make 30 dollars an hour and these people are wanting more!!!!! I think you all inhaled to much garbage fumes

  • The problem here is that declaring something to be an "essential service" will mean the deal will become even sweeter to the union.

  • Ask the Mayor, what if TTC strike on the city Mayor election Day without forewarning, what will be the outcome.

    Advise to the next to be Mayor.

    Your best campaign slogan is "I will make TTC as an essential service".

    Bet millions of riders (majority are voters too) will support you.

    Only 9000 workers and related will not.

    BUT you have millions of riders/voters support. You will be elected as the Next Mayor of Toronto.

    Yes strike TTC with the most powerful act --essential service.
