Air Canada FAs on strike

Back to the main topic, I know many think that Canada, the other commonwealth countries or many places in Europe are super labor friendly, but they’re really not.

Superficially they look better because the government covers a few items, but where the rubber meets the road on pay and quality of life items, yea, it can be a bad deal. The entirely of the industry outside the US, with a few exceptions, is a pretty raw deal.

Canada can be pretty bad. You don’t want to be in binding arbitration under any circumstances. It’s where really, really bad deals go to gestate. Alaska found that out a few years ago.
 
I’d say easily 90% of my seniority list couldn’t miss two paychecks.
Honestly you probably aren't wrong. I flew with a CA making over 400k living paycheck to paycheck purely by choice. I honestly have no idea how that happens. Even with divorces and kids.

Wouldn’t it be wild if they taught basic financial literacy in school.
