Author Topic: Labour Day Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-01-2003 08:48 PM                     I hope everyone remembers as they either are enjoying overtime pay for the holiday or sitting at home with a cold one remember that today is for celebrating the efforts of organized labour and if they hadn't been there most of the job protection benifits we enjoy today would not have happened  |  IP: Logged Jesse August Film Handler Posts: 58 From: Vancouver British Columbia Registered: Jul 2003 posted 09-01-2003 09:06 PM                     Cheers, I'd rather be sippin' on a cold one. But I'll have to settle for the well deserved extra $$. Long live the labour movements that look out for the workin' man.

It's time for a rebirth of organized labor to take back what is slowly being taken away. It pains me when I think of all the people whose livelihoods have been lost in the movie business alone over the last 20 years.  |  IP: Logged
