This is not the first time that the local 279 transit union and bus drivers in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada go on strike. They have been on strike since December 10th, 2008 till January 30 2009.
Many students were not able to go to school, some people lost their jobs, businesses were totally down, some people had to walk long hours to work in this cold weather and imagine about the crazy traffic in the streets due to the transit strike and so on!!

Even after the strike was over, we still don't have buses back on the roads. It's gonna take 1 week to get 65% of the buses back and almost 3 months to get back to the normal service.

So do you think, we (the people of Ottawa) should we be happy that the buses are back? Don't you think there should be a law to prevent transit strikes??

Shame on those people who played with our lives during these 53 days!
