Hypothetical strategic strike

So every other week someone is going on strike. Imagine if some group went on strike just before production, but after tooling for Camaro. What would GM's backup plan be to fix this?

Pay a thousand CZ28.Com members to fly up and meet the teamsters.

Aren't contract negotiations typically in Sep-Oct for GM, and isn't production slated for February? In other words... I wouldn't worry about it.

I dont think you'd have to pay, methinks if the union tried to use F5 production strikes as leverage the mayhem would be roughly equivalent to oh say August 6th, 1945

CAW doesnt usually pull the strategic strikes like UAW, do they?
