economy and everyone thebin lnessman the laborer the housewife the professional man and even the auto worker will pay for it Next Ford of Canada will have to follow GMs lead and every labor agree ment signed over these next three yars will reflect to varying degrees this one whopping sttlement The cost of iivin index wrll continue to be forced Sup wards as the cost of labor goesup so does the price of the product In the end no one will be the Winner At time when the nation should be doing all in its ower to head off infla tion the GM se flement is disaster The United Auto Workers have won wage parity with their United States counterparts At the same time the Canv sdian union has refused to give up an outmoded and costly procedure whereby the entire production lines are closed down completely for coffee breaks In the US plants the coffee breaks are staggered so the lines keep moving Thus Canadian GM workers will earn as much while producing less than their American counterparts And while the 5118 auto companies serve domestic population of 200 million those in Can eda have home market of only 20 million It is little wonder that the cost of carin Canada farexcoeds that in the
