Now a days I am not sure that it matters. During the summer season we used to have old school buses from Montreal and surroundings carting students to the farms in the Saint Lawrence Low Lands. Today there are only people from poorer countries willing to do the work. Even with cleaner jobs and air conditioned work there is a progressive and significant drop in working students! Who is paying for them to live? It's a crazy social cycle. We will take care of our kids like we wish we had been taken care of. Now both the husband and wife need to work to support the family. These are cycles that are terribly difficult to change much like trying to put pressure on BRP that will change regardless.
Changing jobs from one manufacturer to another won't necessarily provide job guarantee nor long term stability. But being smarter about our families to help them get educated will help them better fend for themselves. I get that you guys have this insatiable need to help the masses fight the monsters, but I don't see it helping by making deals with ever bigger ones. Ski-Doo sleds are still built in the Americas, so they should be treated as such. If we start making excuses with transfer payments between provinces there will be no end to these discussions as we can use countless of examples all around the world. We should make an effort to avoid making it about where I live and pay my taxes, and maybe we have a chance to fight for something better.
