So you just knew the MSM would be waiting to make out farmers as the terrorists.

That sounds more like something Unifor would pull off looking for sympathy. Sorta like Justin in a bullet proof vest during the election. Liberals are slime balls liars.

REGINA—Only 72 hours after rejecting all of the recommendations from Premier Scott Moe’s appointed mediators, Federated Co-operatives Limited has tabled new, aggressive concessions in bargaining with oil & gas workers in Regina.

“Right from the beginning, we called for mediation to be binding, not a friendly suggestion for Co-op to ignore,” said Jerry Dias, Unifor National President. “The province must introduce legislation to end to this dispute and force this rogue employer to restore safe operation of Saskatchewan’s largest refinery.”

On day 111 of the bitter lockout at the Co-op Refinery, the company has tabled a “final offer” with concessions that go far beyond what was proposed by Vince Ready and Amanda Rogers in their report commissioned and paid for by the Saskatchewan government. Co-op’s new demands include a significant reduction in the company’s pension responsibilities while gutting the employee savings plan.

“Co-op has never wanted to compromise, they want it all,” said Kevin Bittman, Unifor Local 594 President. “But it’s too late for that. The mediators’ report was the process that workers and the company agreed to, we ratified it, and it’s what Scott Moe needs to enforce.”

Local 594 voted 98 per cent in favour of the compromises contained in the report from the Premier’s appointed mediators, and say they are ready to return to work under that settlement, which includes workers contributing eight percent to their pensions. Unifor says that a return to work for the skilled workforce that normally operates the Regina refinery cannot happen soon enough.

Everyone except Federated wants this lockout to end.

Moe appointed mediators to help settle this dispute that should have been settled long ago. Unifor members voted to support the mediators proposal and asked Moe for binding mediation. It never came.

See, Forage, I told you Chuck could defend the indefensible without help. And what a big surprise, he Parrots the NFU's position.

So wanting parties to settle a lockout and get back to work as soon as possible is indefensible? Huh?
