Mark Hancock said there is ‘no limit’ to what he will do to get a deal for cabin crew after a federal labour board called the strike illegal
A leader of the union on strike against Air Canada said on Monday he would risk jail time rather than allow cabin crew to be forced back to work by a federal labour board, raising the stakes in a battle that has disrupted flights for hundreds of thousands of travellers during tourist season.
“If it means folks like me going to jail, then so be it. If it means our union being fined, then so be it. We’re looking for a solution here,” said Mark Hancock, CUPE national president, at a press conference after a deadline by the board to return to work expired with no union action to end the strike.
