    I think these folks should do what the CUPE workers did in Ontario in the face of back-to-work legislation in 2023 - ignore it and go on strike. Perhaps they’re waiting for the lawsuit to resolve whether the gov’t has the power to do what it does first. If they keep complying with the gov’t actions long term, the unions will lose more of their power.

      Agreed. Short term it might seem unwise but the long term consequences of failing to strike are a slow methodical erosion of the few worker rights we have left.
