CAW strikes again, at the Big 3's exspense

I'm surprised they actually went to the Big 2.8 for the money; I figured they would just tap into their respective IV drips and suck it out with a straw.

Hmmm, 1.2 million. What is that? Six percent of what Mr. Wagoner makes in a year? Oh wait, Wagoner earned that fair and square. He has only lost 70 BILLION since he took over and there is still a little wiggle room left. Yeah Rick!!! My mistake, carry on with your bashing.

The sad part of it is that probably very few of them drive domestic cars.

Based on inventory levels, I don't think there is anything GM or Chrysler has built in Canada that a strike would affect anytime soon. Ford could get burned on the Edge/Flex/MKX but they have a few months of inventory.

Maybe GM is just mending fences in Canada after the truck plant bad PR.

If I remeber this correctly, they all wanted their tooling so they could ship it to other vendors, and this was the solution agreed to 8 months ago. This is not a new situation, and I doubt it was done in response to the Oshawa debacle.
