Canada

I'm no fan of the public sector unions (especially PSAC), but bailing corporations out only for them to cost the economy millions of dollars per day due to necessary job action ain't it, either. A lot of these employers have let their collective agreements expire, sometimes years ago, because they know they can get the government to force their employees back to work.

If they're that important to the economy and they've proven they can't handle the intricacies of doing business without a government handout to keep them profitable (check and check), they should be nationalized. Pie in the sky for a second: maybe the revenue from a nationalized Air Canada would mean lower federal taxes or something.

If we don't try, this will just happen again.
