This is not an illegal strike at least for the moment. WestJet failed at the bargaining table and convinced the Minister to use his bully stick on their workers. The union didn't ask for arbitration and still retain their right to strike. So sad that grandma can't fly to Calgary this weekend but strikes inconvenience people which is why they are an important lever for labor unions seeking fair wages and working conditions.
