News Flash: Barney Frank Opposes the Right to Strike!

On the Lou Dobbs show tonight, Barney Frank was talking about how he dislikes "retention bonuses". Summed up, he's against people who say "If you don't bribe me, I'll quit and hurt your company."

Isn't that precisely what unions do when they threaten to go on strike? "Pay us more, or we'll all quit working and hurt your company."

Mounties Under Fire - Premieres on CBC - January 21 at 9pm

If you're one of the tens of thousands whose trust
in the RCMP has been rocked by repeated scandal, here is a film you must see. MOUNTIES UNDER FIRE is a gripping journey into the heart of the RCMP during a period of profound crisis, revealing a painfully flawed organization fighting for its life.

From top brass to beat cop, Bountiful Films
captures a force in the throes of self-examination, struggling to get back to its core values. Filmmaker Helen Slinger was struck by the frankness, and discomfort, with which senior RCMP responded to the film. "When commenting on the intimate view of the force that resulted from the open access we were able to negotiate, one senior Mountie said it all: 'Riveting, but it hurts.'"
