This is a smaller version of the politics in America. We are all pawns being told what to do and not to do. What happens when the whole UA actually stands together and goes on strike? Bet that would get some attention from the big house, but majority of you wouldn’t do it anyway. All talk! Don’t talk about it, be about it.

I don’t think a full strike is really the way that’s a bit extreme. Some people are finally seeing the light of what the Democrats are doing. I think we need to start voting conservative members in at our unions and it will turn things for the UA. Our voting system is not rigged at least and it’s a simple Accurate paper count.

Im a UA 488 member, Edmonton Alberta and I mean no disrespect to my American counterparts. The cancelation of the Keystone XL pipeline is a good thing, in theory, for Canadians. Why shouldnt the oil be refined here in Canada. Build a new refinery or 2. Create thousands of construction jobs for Canadians who need it. It would also produce long term jobs for hundreds, if not thousands here. Even short term jobs will be created by the thousands in turnarounds and maintenence. All of the revenue could go back into Canadas pocket.

@@Derek-ky7wg You know how long it takes to stop a tanker ship? You have to plan and work and stay the course! The union is a democracy, we don't always get our way, we get what the majority of whomever is voting wants. If you stay away from the hall and never take part in the meetings and don't vote, you can't be going out in public crying because you don't like the outcome! We all need to be adults and accept the situation and continue to try and make it better! You're so right, it does not happen over night

This has nothing to do with voting at our Union Halls which is going fair in my opinion. It has to do with a president that was elected by fraud in my opinion and a UA which supported him. The unions do all the same as one another because of politics and money. It’s time they change to what we want. We can’t change that by voting at union halls. The unions just have to stop doing it and see it’s not working. They supported this guy and our now throwing the blame on other BS.

@@Cupoftea1252 Sounds like you're the one drinking something. It's about an all over behavior, not the temporary situation we're currently in. Settle your grievances the right way, not whining on social media. To the world the UA should be a United Association... if anything, This behavior will certainly be the thing that brings it down.

@@kurtis211 so in other words, go with the flow or leave? I refuse to continually be brainwashed, but feel free to if you dont have a mind of your own. I was and still am in the UA as was my father for 30 plus years, and ive just retired after 30 years. Did the UA ask you for your opinion on who they spent part of your dues to endorse? better yet, have they actually asked your opinion on anything? for my last 30 years i was told who i should vote for, and not why or what they had to offer. Only that they were for unions. Im pretty sure none of the office people are out of work or out of a paycheck like lots of union members, which still have to pay dues no less.

@@kevinwallis2194 ...Don't put words in my mouth. I am a third generation Pipefitter in the UA and proud of it. I'm happy to hear that you just retired! Congrats! And hopefully you retired with a pension & some kind of health care! But we elect our "Leaders" to make these tough decisions...just like we do for our Business Managers & BA's. They are not going to ask the rank & file who we should support. They make their decisions with the info they have on the candidates! Didn't you read the 10 pages in the UA Journal before the election?! There was NO GREAT OPTION! They (Trump & Biden) both suck brother! Lol! But this country is divided...NO ONE is going to agree all of the time BECAUSE we have our own minds and opinions! That's all I'm trying to say! I hope you have a long, wonderful, and healthy retirement brother! Take care!

The pressure should not be on the politicians. It should be on the contractor. If the contractor would follow the route of the existing Keystone line. That project would be well under way, and twice the work. You cannot risk polluting a major freshwater source to supply Canada with billions of dollars.

Take a step back and look at our countries history regarding unions and large corporations. Both are responsible for millions of jobs lost. Steel mills, coal mines, brass factories, textile mills, shoe factories, car factories, wire factories, lumber mills etc. all are gone. It’s not just the unions fault, but clearly large companies leave due to your needs/wages/benefits/cost. WE DONT BUILD ANYTHING ANYMORE. College is pushed down our throats during school, and when we graduate, there are no blue collar jobs. There all overseas. You people want way to fucking much. You are ruining our children’s future. All because you want 40 bucks an hour and a pension. Well now we have jack shit. Thanks. Sincerely: a NON UNION hard working blue collar American.
