The issue we have with this particular section, if you read it, is that the corporation “may” eliminate those activities in those provinces and change the type or the volume of any and all activities in each of those provinces, as well as the level of employment.
The word “may” is one of the issues. As a representative of members at Air Canada, I can tell you that these types of words have a different meaning from what some of us would think those words mean. I've been at the negotiating table with Air Canada on many occasions. They will use those types of words, and there will be no guarantees that even the excellence centres that they speak about will be around, because they may do it or they may not do it.
That is a big issue with us, the word “may”. It should be that they “shall.”
