And it is not the only one. The PSU tail has been wagging the dog for a long time.
Indeed, the blame for this strike lays squarely at the feet of the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU), as opposed to the rank and file front line workers.

Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
