Probably because ALPA is fulfilling its obligation as a national union and forwarding the arbitrated seniority list to the company next month.

As a whole, the East MEC has been quite entertaining, a real life version of Comedy Central or a Saturday Night Live skit. Many of us will have a lot of laughs with the memories of Jack Stephan's rhetorical messages, the C41 reps incessant "injustice upon us" blast emails and of course, the likes of a few posters around here (the real vocal minority, we are finding out from poling data). In the end, obstinate stupidity is a strategy that which will not work well- some of you are about to find this out.
