My attempt at levity failed in reply to the CAF having problems with
and the fact that Public Works has their fingers into everything.......that unionizing the CAF may not have any affect, as another 'unionized' organization is involved; an organization that really doesn't care one way or the other about the CAF, only their stated responsibilities/MOU, nothing else. Union agreements keep organizations like Public Works and all Government union members bound to work only within their defined agreements, not to stray outside of those agreements; if it isn't written in your job description, you are not to do it. In effect, this can be shown to be one flaw with CAF procurement, the Public Sector side of the procedure.
Other than being unionized, the Union usually has nothing to do with what Public Works does, only the conditions that they work under in their job descriptions. Sorry if I am all over the map there.
I just can't see the military being unionized as being beneficial to anyone; least of all, the nation.
Any military union should be "For the soldiers, run by the soldiers"
It should exclude the entire officer corps and I would like to think of it as the institution's very own sergeant major.
