TORONTO The union representing Air Canada pilots (TSX:AC.B) says travellers don't have to worry about a strike over the busy holiday season.
The union group issued a statement making clear there isn't a danger that they'll strike during the period.
The president of the Air Canada Pilots Association says there is no reason for it to take any action as long as both sides negotiate in good faith.
Pilots aren't in a legal strike position until mid-February, when they face a potential deadline.
Capt. Paul Strachan said the key will be for the airline to allow pilots to be full participants in its strategic vision.

I feel that if certain organs were in demand, less effort would be made to revive people. Am I being silly? Not really. I had a bad experience in hospital when my heart stopped, the doctors tried to revive me and failed. They stopped and said I was gone. I came around on my own when the nurse was giving a final BP reading of 'zero'. I heard her declare me dead! It was all I could do to shake my head but they never caught on til I was able to open my eyes. You should have seen them scramble then! I thought the nurse was going to faint. The thing is, I think we may write people off too soon when there is something of value to be gained from them.
