I shot him an email earlier today.Lear, talk to AP. I think you'll be surprised just how much support the NPA receives from ALPA.
He came out with his "talking paper" on the upcoming election, took specific time to address EXACTLY how and when we use ALPA's services.
Unless he's purposefully downplaying it (possible, I don't really know the guy like I knew and had drinks with almost all the PCL MEC guys), I'd say we stay as far away from involvement with ALPA as possible while still availing ourselves of their resources.
Definitely a fine (and hard) line to walk, but I appreciate it, as I don't like the idea of DALPA (or anyone else for that matter) having access to the same info that we do for negotiations, especially if the company ever opens their books;
Kind of like showing the guy next to you your hand in Texas Hold 'Em.
