GM Ontario plant tops Nissan's Smyrna facility...

I just thought I'd throw you Big Labor folks a bone since I do so much union bashing. Not that this article even remotely changes my beliefs on unions:

Heard that on the news this morning. I had no idea the Smyrna plant was that productive!

I, for one, love Canadians. And I welcome our new CAW overlords.

Union rank and file are generally some of the most skilled, productive people in the production chain in my experience.

Unfortunatly, big unions such as the UAW have quite a few deskwarmers, who have good intentions, but a little less than the required dose of reality.

UAW has deskwarmers... GM has deskwarmers... I think we need to shove them all on a nice long boat trip to Tokyo, and let them all go work for Toyota...
