No Meddlers Allowed


Remember when Eddie said this:
  • "It keeps putting us back," Mayor Eddie Francis says of the extra hands in the kitchen. The meddlers are "a serious impediment" to reaching a deal, he says."

Now he says this as reported by CKLW. This has to take the prize as the funniest line of the CUPE strike and the saddest

  • "The city's negotiating team is working on a counter-proposal as talks continue to end the 14-week-old strike by municipal workers. Neither side is commenting on how negotiations are progressing today. Mayor Eddie Francis says negotiators for both sides must be left alone in an effort to get an agreement."

If only he had thought about this months ago!
