[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 1184548, member: 37112"] And who says the meeting was a joke? The guys aligned with the past board? Facts are facts and you've touched on a big one. The IBT can and will impose this deal if it gets turned down. No way will a majority of members who've already accepted the National Agreement will now suddenly vote to strike. The IBT knows this so continued negotiations are extremely unlikely, so yes, unless this deal is accepted the LAW (PPA) precludes any pension benefit improvement for L804 unless action is taken by October, action that will only happen if the supplement is ratified. That's not Tim's deal, that's the law. So when stewards/members/BC posters want to argue that point, they show ignorance of process, but of course ignorance hasn't stopped this boards enemies so far so little will change. Lot of good work could be on the way down the drain unless people wake up. [/QUOTE]
