Is continuing to lose more manufacturing jobs really cause for celebration or am I missing something here?
These strikers seemed pretty belligerent. Their shantytown was really nasty looking, and they had signs everywhere threatening scab laborers (including some sort of tire-puncturing device). Several signs were affixed to the Don Roadway infrastructure and recreational trail. It looked like Windsor or Oshawa or something.
They parked their nasty American cars beside the recreational trail, so each time I rode to the Beaches I had to look at their grey Pontiac G6 and electric blue PT Cruiser. Uuuugh. The horror.
One of their signs said "Korex Lofts coming Spring 2009", which could actually turn out to be quite accurate! The factory itself is in a similar style to Broadview Lofts at Broadview & Eastern, which itself is a fantastic conversion.
EDIT Added picture of the site pre-strike, as below.
