The last thing I want to do is to read ulterior motive into the looming bankruptcies at GM and Chrysler. Pretty well everyone on the planet realizes that these black smoke companies, once at the top of the heap of profit generating centres of wealth here and in the U.S., are mainly the authors of their own demise. What is sticking in my craw is that the Conservative government cabinet, filled with old Mike Harris men, is acting a tad too energetically about cutting auto workers wages down. Today In Washington, Obama introduced more funding for the ailing companies presumably to safeguard worker's job. Will some one convince me that Ottawa isn't engaging in good, old-fashioned union busting.
