Forcing a contract is legal, but wrong |

Dear Sir:

On Dec. 1, 1955, a middle- aged black woman refused to yield her seat at the front of a bus and move to the back of the bus, to the seats that were reserved for Negroes. This was the humble start of the civil rights movement in the United States in which thousands of people joined together to fight against unfair laws.

Rosa Parks should be thankful that she never tried to do something of this magni-

tude in British Columbia. After all, accord- -

ing to the British Columbia Liberals, all laws must be obeyed at all times.

One can not pick and chose which laws to obey, and if Rosa Parks had acted in this

‘manner, the government would have im-

mediately called for a special prosecutor to press criminal charges against Mrs. Parks and the thousands of others that joined in the Montgomery Bus Boycott. sh

Mrs.. Parks, through her refusal to yield ar St “showing flagrant contempt for the courts”, to use Mr. Campbell’ s own words.

It is a truly sad day when Buzz Hargrove mentions during a CBC interview that bar- gaining works in the private sector, as shown by recent collective agreements that have been signed, but fails in,the public sector as governments often just sign a bill forcing a collective agreement (now there is an oxy-

‘What exactly don’t the teachers under- stand about the words ‘illegal’ and ‘in con- tempt of court’?

moron for you) on people.) Mr: Hargrove mentioned British Colum- bia specifically. Ironically, I am not’a huge,

union supporter, nor have I ever been a fan of :

Buzz Hargrove. However, there’i is right and ‘there is wrong.

The Jin Crow laws in Alabama were wrong. Rosa Parks’ actions, although il- legal, were right. Only through the eyes of history does the true impact of her actions become visible.

Bill 12 is wrong. The actions of the BCTF, although illegal, are right, and again may only be seen so through the eyes of his- tory. «

Mr. Campbell, it is time that you realized that the people of British Columbia elected a democratic government, not a dictator- ship, so please stop acting like a third-world dictator, Admit that Bill 12 was wrong, as was Bill 37 before it, and Bill 29 even before that.

Realize that forcing collective agree- ments through legislation, although legal, is wrong.

The people of British Columbia are: speaking, and quite loudly. The British Co- |

lumbia Liberals need to take their collective fingers out of their ears (and their heads out of other orifices) and listen to what the peo- ple are saying. 7
