Re: [BDSM-LegalIssues] Re: Canadians begin to get it...

As the newly titled "Whining Electoral Loser" I could observe that my
comment was not bemoaning anything. In many respects I believe the
election result will bring refreshing change.

One of those changes (at the behest of unions) will add risk to
employers for no economic benefit, in order to gain the unions a few
high-profile short term wins, and I observed that employees (the union
members) will be the long term losers. Pretty simple economics really.

I could whine that I fail to understand how this supports SHs argument.

As I whined in an earlier post - it is fiddling at the margins.
Invariably any bit of legislation to 'improve' the situation has
unintended negative side effects.
