I think the CAW was looking at the industry as a whole and the outlook for Canada specifically in terms of making the deal ... but in any event, if you factor in "sharing the success" you're enjoying now, do you not also have to include "sharing the pain" of any possible downturn? I think from the union's POV sharing the success means more members working, not necessarily more coin for each.

Anyway - congrats to the boys and girls building the Edge and MKX - it is helping save Ford and put more money into the shareholders jeans - yay!! And for that, I personally thank you.
