CAW Local 636 President Expresses Concern

Local Members of Woodstock's CAW are reacting to the latest developments of London's Caterpillar workers. Local 636 President Ross Gerrie says members continue to worry what will happen to their own positions in manufacturing. Gerrie says their greatest support has to continue to come from the general public to get help get their message across "The politicians listen to people and people are mad, our members are mad, our union is mad and everyone in the community are mad as far as I can see - they're mad at what Caterpillar did. People are fed up. People are very discouraged. I think a public outcry is what's needed for the politicians to do something". Gerrie says local 636 have grave concerns of what the province and the federal governments are letting major corporations do. Gerrie says he would like to see a guarantee that corporations are going to commit themselves to stay for awhile.
