    So apparently being a French or Canadian company doesn’t necessarily mean that you respect or understand unions, I thought that was mostly American practice, I was wrong

      French companies outside of France might as well be American with the way they treat non French workers.

      That’s because they all adapt to local workers laws. That’s how you know they would absolutely fuck us every which way if they could, hence why we (French people) need this sort of reminder.
      Alas I doubt this would even show up in the news.

      Almost any large capitalist company, especially those that are publicly traded, will devour its own in the name of higher Q3 profits.
