Instead of hearing us, the city of Toronto forced 24,000 people out on strike. We note that the mayor dropped any reference to fairness as one of the principles on which he has said a settlement must be forged. Fairness is what this strike is all about. The city of Toronto is trying to exact concessions from its direct employees that were never asked of other unionized workers - police, fire, parking, housing, hydro - who provide public services in this city. The city is reneging on promises made to workers who have spent their careers working for the people of Toronto.
