A strike is not anything I want to do. It will cost my people money. But this union has been a rubber stamp to the authority for years.

Governments are republican only in proportion as they employ the will of the people and execute it

That does diminish the possibility of striking, but of course it's not eliminated because we have other issues that need to be addressed.

We are 100 percent sure that we're going to defeat them -- if it comes to an election.

In every area, we are trying to make ends meet. We don't have a lot of money here. It's a tough situation. We have lost five coaches in the last four years. It's a situation that hopefully we can address at some point because these guys have done a good job and have worked hard.

Every people may establish what form of government they please, and change it as they please, the will of the nation being the only thing essential.
