"Hands off our contract"y The union representlng 60,000 workers in the Ontario Public Service is warning tie Ontario govern- ment to "back off' on a new law aimed at wiiping ou[thUe blggest union victory of the 1996 OPS strike. Goverrment officiais have told the Ontario Public -Service Employees Union that legislation lias already been drafted to nullilfr the "reas on- able efforts" clause of thc. OPS contract. The Hanris Tories regard the job security clause as the number one obstacle to their plans to restructure the OPS through downloading, privatization, and divestment. "A contract is a contract," said OPSEU president Leah Casselman. "If the govern- ment has a problem wiUi a legai contract - one it signed itself, to boot - the place to deail wlth it is at the bargain- ing table, not in the- legisla- turc.", The OPS collective agree- ment requires the employer to make "reasonable efforts" to find jobs with the new employer for OPSEU mcm- bers whose work is trans- ferred out of the public ser- vice. In a string of grievance awards, arbitrators have ruled that Uic employer Is not living up to its contractual obligations. Transfers are bclng delaycd as a result. "When we were on strike for, five wceks in~ 1996, we made no bones about the fact that we needed strong job security language to replace what was stolen from us in Bill 7 (the November 1995 Tory labour bill)," sald Cassehrpan. "Now that the Tories see Uic language work- lng to protect our members, they're threatening us with another law. "Six months ago, Mike Harris told Uic legislature, "We have restored free collec- tive bargalnlng and ail the rfg'its- that go with it," she said. "We are golng to hold hlm to that statement." Casselman's statement came two years to the day after Uic Harris goverriment uscd flot police to break up a non-violent protest by OPSEU members and supporters outside Queen's Park during Uic OPS strike. At least four protesters were injured by police batons. "We fought hard to get this collective agreement, and we'll fight just as hard to kecp it," Casselman vowed. Car care for Spring Your car hias just struggled through a winter of cold, snow, slush and saIt. Now that spring is finally here, OAA Central Ontario suggests you give your vehicle a thior- oughi spring check-up to get it ready for the warm months aliead. Start with the interlor and- a good airing out. After removlng the floor mats, give the seats and floors a good vacuuming to remove months of sand and salt. Check the carpeting for wetness and keep the floor mats out until they are thoroughly dry. Clean ail the plastic and vinyl surfaces. Finish up with cleanlng ail Interior windows. Common sense will tell you to wasli the exterlor of the car, taking extra Urne to spray out the sait and dlrt accumu- lation from under Uic wliecl wells and rocker panels. Next, look under the hood and start wlth a checck of the fluid level. Check your owner's manual to find the locations of the fluid indica- tors and recommcnded inter- vais for ofi and filter changes, antifreeze and other mainte- nanice items. Vlsually lnspect Uic belta for wear that may show up as cracking or fraycd edges. Beits should be tight and should not give more than one-half to three-quarters of an inch. Check Uhe radiator and heater hoses. If the hoses are i good condition, they should be flrm but not overly liard. If the hoses on your car are spongy, cracked, overly hard or have any bulges, they should be replaced. Check the battery for prop- er levels and charge. Clean any accumulated corrosion from the terminais. Last but not least, make a visual inspection of the tires. Chieck inflation pressure and inflate to the recommcnded pressure according to your owner's manual. Underinflation creates exces- sive heat, which seriously reduc's tire life and can cause tire fallure. It will also increase rolling resistance and reduce fuel efficiency.
