Equality begins at home by Audry Manning of The Beacon
If you think the strike at Voisey’s Bay Nickel in Labrador has nothing to do with you, think again.
Apparently, mine workers employed by Inco in Sudbury, Ont., earn an hourly wage of at least $24, while their counterparts at Voisey's Bay make only $19 an hour. Our province is being treated unfairly. We are second-class citizens in Canada.
What amazes me is the silence coming out of Sudbury and Thompson when you consider they are the ones benefiting from Voisey's bay right now and these poor souls who are being treated unfairly are apart of the same union where is the solidarity between the Union brothers and sisters?
No, not procesing Voisey's bay ore doesn't constitute any meaningfull support for your union brothers.
