Ace of Hearts - talking with the bus strikers in Halifax   Message List  
Reply Message #109 of 118 |
Ace of Hearts

Yesterday I sat there in my wheelchair freezing for hours talking with the

bus strikers in front of the Halifax city hall.


I explained to them that it is time for the union to realize that public

opinion is vital to them.


I expressed that interfering with access-a-bus would be a terrible public

relations move.


The drivers were in agreement with me.

I said to them that like the big hearts on their placards that they now play

the ace of hearts card and for them to ace 

this public relation battle by showing the people that the drivers are one of

the people and to show us all that they 

are true aces by not interfering with access-a-bus.

I said that if they still picketed at the access-a-bus garage but did not interfere,

that they would win.


I also mentioned to them that these days unions are being eliminated by the

stroke of a pen by a politician and that 

only public support would prevent that.

I am waiting for the drivers to be an ace.

I am Daniel Towsey in the picture above..

Thanks for reading this and trying to help the disabled.. 

All disabled people really appreciate it.
