Rob Mason called the action centre to let us know that our claims against MNP/GENFAST for monies owed is still moving ahead. He would like to update us on a few items of interest. The Stay against legal procedings has been lifted.
Obviously this is going to take some time, and while Rob uses terms like cautiously optimistic, I am pleased to hear that the Legal Dept is still advancing our case.
Obviously there is more, more that I/we are not going to be told about our suit, because no one wants to say something that could inadvertantly jeopardize our file.
Regardless, it is going to be a long haul, and the USW will keep us updated on any major developments.

Local Politicos
I went to the book sale for the Brantford Symphonic Orchestra today. Most of you will know that this is an annual event to raise money for the band. I got a load of books for rock bottom prices and a worthy Brantford institution doesn't have to step up to the taxpayer's teat to get support.
It must have been a note worthy event, because both our MP and our MPP were there. I didn't see any cameras but I may have missed the photo op.
I thought of a few questions that I should have asked them and then I thought, " Well why not. Is a blog not a form of journalism? Shouldn't someone ask these guys why they won't respond realistically to our situation while an NDP rep. in Hamilton does. I emailed Levac in January and yet he made it sound in the paper the other day like he sprang into action as soon as he found out.
If we offer to take his picture maybe he'll come to the rally at the plant on Tuesday.
I'm not bitter, just senselessly unemployed.
On a good note, I got an email from Rob Mason today and he was encouraging. I would love to have Rob and some of the action committee posting on this blog. I think they would be more qualified than I am and their content would be of higher calibre as well.
