CUPE has been kind enough to tell us that the Liquor Control Board of Ontario carries more than 30 Israeli wines.
I shall be buying some on my next trip there.
Perhaps you could start a thread where your readers would tell us what other Israeli products are available in the stores.
Consider it started!
Superstore carries frozen basil, garlic, cilantro, and ginger from Isreal. Each little cube is one teaspoon — very convenient and very yummy.
Hey new kid:
Sorry to hear about your bad experiences. Unfortunately, no organization is perfect and there will alway be people with agendas. My experience with unions has been the opposite, which is why I strongly defend their right to exist.
If you are indeed not apathetic then don’t give up. Someday the opportunity to fix things may present itself to you.
lberia:
Easier said than done. Your right to an extent. Part of it is apathy on some workers part. Very minimal though. I helped try to change things & frankly there worse. The younger crowd where even more suborned. The other Vultures in waiting where there raiding the bank. Managment disguised under a reorginization had taken complete control & still have it.
The fellow who tried to instigate reform. Was made permenant & never heard from again as he became One of the selected heads by a cabal. Only the top 2 unelected Presidents for life resigned & with big fat payoffs.
The new ones turned out too be 7 times the devils of the old ones. One is in line for a Director ship.
As for the CUPE’s madness in there ritual of Jew baiting. Its no surprise. This Union has joined its other left leaning commrads. In an orgy of AntiSemitism.But then was it ever far from the moonbats agenda? The left & Islamofacists preach from the same book. Its called Authoritarianism & murder.
Not a word about the innocents being blown up, or Palistinians straping bombs to there own children. Of settlements being shot at by rockets. No there lambs these people. I wonder why the rest of the Middle East dislikes them?
Oh they pretend there for the cause but in reality its just a foil to attack Jews in Isreal.
Personely I am going to buy Isreali merchendise. I just wish I could avoid CUPE. With these Unions it can mean your job. I kid you not. There that vicious. I am hoping new laws will curtail abuses.
I may disagree with some of Isreals policies, but there hardly a Nation of killers. After 5 attempts of groups to whipe them out. Put up with nummerious prececutions during many periods. Don’t you think they ought to be able to protect themselves.Have there Country back? Man this world is full of evil passing as good.
The good to be made tarnished.
Bt the way not even remotly Jewish. I just don’t understand the hatred. Its utter lunacy. Just like the devil & baby killing Satan worshippers of the eightiesYou know the ones theey imagined, in day cares. Group insanity.
As a Christian I go along with the Book Of Hebrews in the NT. Jews our our elders in faith in the living God. We are a branch of a great vine& should not hold ourselves above those who are old in faith. That a people that harried , hated & reviled , after so many attempts at extermination is still alive. Just proves to me there is a God.
I have started my own boycott-of products or services from any company donating to any leadership campaign, especially those trying to bypass limits by using kids, starting with those donating to Scott Bisson. I heard on cbc that Volpe is returning a portion of money from the kids. Too bad, the damage is done, liberals are crooks and cheats. Can a person make donations to more than one candidate.
bob,
as usual your screeds are half truths and and leftist propoganda.
the only u.n. resolutions that israel has ignored are those adopted by the general assembly and they carry no force or effect and are unenforceable. they are not security council resolutions.
the former are with extremely few exceptions tabled by one of the islamic/dictatorship block of countries that do nothing else at the u.n. except maybe sit on the human rights council.
the general assembly is nothing more than a soapbox.
For those wishing to contact CUPE. This is the site. If your looking to be anonomious. Forget it. There comment page more than reflects there idea of individual expression. After they can go after you if they dislike your comments. Rest assured they do target people. They black ball there own members.
This Union is accountable to no one except the Unions elite. In no way or fashion has anyone ever from the so called crooks that are the leadership (lib-left NDP & liebrals all.)EVER listened to any worker. According too the Union, regular labour, workers are just trash. BY workers i mean blue collor. There concerns are all white collar using blue collor money to raise there wages while taking from the lowist rung of worker.
Just look at the executives wages. Heck one guy lives in Landsdown. Richist area here. Its informative that not one employee could afford ever to live there. Yet these people earning off the backs of real labors , could never even understand how the ones who have enriched them live. No wonder these mavens of society eskew any contact with the LOWER orders of society. There at the top themselves.They dont give a weasels rump what the “little guy” thinks. Nor do they care about there futures or working conditions.
Its instructive that our pensions have almost decayed beyond belief. More money poured into them, just flowed EAST with no renumeration for us.
They have all the prejudics of there class too. Jew hating being one of them.Distain for manual labour. Contempt for Democracy. An elitist view of there place .

THUMB YOUR NOSE AT ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALISM: DRINK… ESPECIALLY ISRAELI WINE!
BOTTOMS UP, FREE WORLDERS! 😉
Hey Revnant Dream:
All you’ve given is your opinion. Why don’t you back your statements up with FACTS. Do you have any weblinks to prove what you’ve stated?
lberia:
Frankly you sound like a shill for CUPE. Knowing your orginizations propensity for persecution. No one in there right mind would supply information to a Union whore ,to use against them.
Frankly, if my 25 years in the same Union & going to meeting s is not enough information for you. Than all the cooked numbers in the world would not satisfy you.For if they do come from this Union you can bank on anything they put on the table as fraud.
I have seen it so many times, it does not even register anymore. Besides as a typical leftie, you never answered my charges of Collusion with Managment. Funds missing & favorites being employed. Gross Uniuon boss wagesw. Pennsion raiding. Team leaders & crewleaders kids starting jobs at sixteen . This is all approved by this Union & you know it.
So quite prevaricating & answer my Questions. try not to be quite so coy. Where onto you moonbats, & your tactics.
Revnant:
First, I am a member of a union, but it’s not CUPE. Second, if you can’t prove your accusations then they are just innuendo. Third, remember that if you don’t have all the facts, it’s easy to misconstrue what is actually going on.
Although it’s possible for a local lodge to run a crooked operation, it’s highly unlikely that the kind of activities you describe could be going on at a provincial or national level.
And just who is colluding with management? Your shop steward? The local executive?
Quite frankly, if you’re so bitter and angry about your workplace, then quit. YOu won’t find a better time to go…lot’s of jobs out there.
I will be asking my local LCBO to create a section of Israeli wine (as there are French, Italian, etc.). If they refuse, as all the clerks there are probably members of CUPE, I will take legal actions against them.
But my serious concern is that with a small exception, the Government today can not hire anyone outside of the union. With their willingness to side only with victims of certain ethnicity and demonize others, how one can ensure that this doesn’t translates into bias on their daily job. I really think that this is a ground for the ethic commissioner to get involved as there is clearly a conflict of interests. Some union power perhaps should be limited when it comes to the government institutions.

You don’t read well do you? I said that the whole Executive , including shop stewards are crewleaders & team leaders. In effect. Managment. As for being bitter. Your projecting. What I said was i hate my dues being sent to the NDP & other anti democratic institutions. By the way my view of Unions is moderate compared to most “workers ” That have been forced to pay for this gang.
Frankly the Unions a civic joke. It impacts us only wage wise.For the worse. Most of us like the work & jobs. I like working outdoors myself.
The Union is irrelevant now, with a labor market.
Unions are dino’s that will have to be changed & cleansed of the socialist mental disease. If there to be relevant in the future.
…I am afraid for Ontario’s public union in a sense nothing good will come of their denouncement of Israel’s internal workings.
In effect they are touching “God’s annointed” and those who have done so, fall by the wayside.
I do hope they see the error of their ways and repent.
