In the spring of 2012 I was contacted by the mother who had a chilling reminder of why it’s important to question the motives and sensibilities of our public service unions.

Considering how much time the unions spend talking about repression, it amazes me to see OPSEU at work these days. Above is a picture of Silvanna Petersen, local 330 president, donning her full stormtrooper- the equipment that OPSEU recommends that teachers use in the classroom!
