  1. The true ADVANTAGE of a pay raise to the economy will be that workers will be able to put more money into businesses. And then it will flow through to various other businesses, and back to government in the form of taxes. And that is as it should be. You can’t stimulate an economy by starving it and I’ve NEVER seen a sign on a business that said “Union wages not welcome here”

    1. they get a raise so tax payers get lower wages to pay for it. they already make more than teh average.

  2. Madame Clark was quite correct here, the whole reason to work in the Public Sector was for those intangibles/perks. Not necessarily for the wages. Great hours, amazing benefits and a pension that is exemplary, just that the pay is not as great as the private sector. So we must wait and see what this agreement will cost taxpayers; it’s going to be a doozie.
    Merci Madame MacDonald, je t’aime
