Uh, so what you're saying is you don't understand the fundamentals of collective bargaining or contract law? If my union agrees (always by a majority vote) to accept a work contract with certain stipulations that I personally don't agree with I should ignore those stipulations? But the majority of my co-workers agreed with them. Ahh, they are UNJUST stipulations so I'm free to do what I want ... I was raised to keep my word, and a contract is my word. If I agree to an employment contract that requires me to work 10 hours instead of 8, then the law allows me and my co-workers the right to keep that agreement. If I don't like that proposal then all I have to do is vote no. Very little is agreed to by the union that the vast majority doesn't agree with, democracy in action. (We had ten hour shifts for five years before the company cancelled that (their right under the agreement) to save money.
Apparently, 1C made an agreement with other party(ies) that was, at the time, agreeable to both. I'm not sure what would be involved to revisit this agreement but I would guess that Ubi feels that the money they would make directly from doing so wouldn't cover the cost of the phone call to their lawyer to launch such action. If they unilaterally ignored the agreement they would be taken to court, not necessarily for the content of the agreement, but for ignoring a legally binding agreement they were signatory to. Basic law principles, but then, you knew that, didn't you.
