WHEN: Monday March 5, 2012 : 3:30 pm (8 1/2 months of lockout)

Rocky Mountaineer has not come to the bargaining table since July 8th 2011.
Now they are re-hiring scabs from last season and advertising to hire more.
Rocky Mountaineer has filed and won many court injunctions. Security is constantly filming and using video evidence to try to limit picket activities. We thank you in advance for helping us to ensure a peaceful rally which secures the right to maintain our picket line.
CONTACT rblackburn@teamsters31.ca or call Rod at 604 540 6009 for more information

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD

ALSO... We will update about the progress of a general SCAB AWARENESS CAMPAIGN to publicize the negative consequences of using scab labour. www.scabawareness.com

Locked out Rocky Mountaineer employees will be leafleting and talking with students at colleges and university campuses, helping to raise awareness of labour issues. Rocky Mountaineer is hiring another round of scabs for this upcoming season.
