As a matter of fact yes. Why? Because he will not use this stupid union or nothing rates for tendering. Often that means working not just 9 to 5 before demanding double time as stated in the union contract. If that means 7AM to 9PM 7 days a week then so be it. That would be impossible under a union contract due to huge amounts needed for overtime.
So you think that you can get private sector people to work 98 hour weeks without overtime? Seriously? Both you and Ford should familiarize yourselves with the Ontario Employment Standards, which states that "For every hour you work over 44 hours a week, your employer must pay you at least 1½ times your regular rate of pay ("time and a half")." For the record, that is less than half of the 98 hours you propose.
What did you do in a former life, run a 19th century London workhouse?
