The other day I talked to a
former labour union leader. He
told me that the directive he got,
was to belabour an issue out of
proporation so the rank and file of
the local would be all het up by
the time negotiations for a new
contract got underway. This was
done, he said, to retain interest in
the union, for without interest, no
union or other organization can
survive. His job in the union was
t stake, for no union, no job.
In the recent strike by meat and
grain graders and the illegal walk
out by meat inspectors we see
some of this after they went back
to work. An issue is made of the
fact that the Treasury Board
disclosed the terms of settlement
before it was voted upon.
Apparently it is alright if union
leaders don't want an acceptance
vote, but if the other side does it,
it is • considered. improper
influence.
I can't see the difference. If the
terms are acceptable they will
vote for it and if not they will, vote,
against, regar dless of who tells•
them what the terms are. More.
and more protests are noted
against the way labour disputes
are resolved.
It appears that no settlement
can be reached anymore unless
there is a strike period first. The
fact it hurts literally millions of
innocent peple doesn't seem to
concern them at all. Take this
meat and grain strike for
example. The cost to the
consumer and to the
producer/consumer run.s in the
millions of dollars in order to

satisfy the demands of a few
hundred people who may have
been artificially fired up by their
leaders.
There must be a better way and
there are' better ways to settle
disputes. How long will our
society tolerate this costly waste
of national productivity to
continne? We all have seen how
Britain is on the brink of
bankruptcy caused to a great
extent by irresponsible walkouts
and strikes. Are we going the
same route? Labour should have
a fair return on their services in
balance with the profits of the
firms they work for and the same
applies to small business men and
farmers. A good arbitration
system can make this balance
work.
As long as there is greed on
either side, the balance must be
imposed from outside.
