Word of the behaviour of Vancouver Symphony is bubbling up away from its epicentre and for those who don't keep tabs on things via the Globe and Mail. Now word needs to spread more.
The Vancouver Symphony has *a lot* of explaining to do. And also? Get rid of NDA's. They only protect perpetrators and institutions.

The Air Canada strike is a huge deal in so many ways — and lots of them should matter to every single working Canadian.
The flight attendants are ignoring a back to work order. Canadians unions are behind them. The CUPE National President is prepared to go to jail.
