At Vale Inco, we are creating a sustainable and prosperous future for the business that will meet the needs of the current generation of employees and the generations to come. Getting there won’t be easy – it will require significant change – but breaking with the past is sometimes the only way to a more prosperous future.

One does not need to be a genius to read between those lines.

Some say they are out to break the union and will shut down the Sudbury Operation for as long as it takes.

A friend of mine just retired from Inco's Thompson Mine as a Manager. When asked what he thought of the Brazilians his comment was simple. "They are bullies...they get what they want one way or the other."

Too bad they wouldn't take a keen interest in the RoF!!!
