WTF is CSN/FTP, etc....

[Ariel_001]

In quebec when ever there are people protesting whatever there are always holding signs like CSN which has a has a rope logo like this: and FTP which has a logo like this: and there always in french. I want to know does anyone here know who or what those people are? I ask this because I know there are some people here who live in quebec.

There are so fucking annoying. The bus drivers here were wearing their logo when there were protesting, The SAQ (Quebec liquor store) are also protesting holding up signs with logo of what seems to be a similar organization. Every time there is a fuckin protest those signs and other sings similar to CSN, FTP show up. Where do these people come from and why don’t they just go away. I mean if they must stay why they don’t they explain themselves. They should go to a local newspaper or news station and explain who the fuck there are.

CSN Website - French only!

CSN is la Confederation de syndicats nationaux (Confederation of National Trade Unions).

Do you mean FPT (not FTP)? Would make sense with the two organisations though I'm not sure - my French is very rusty.

FPT Website (English version)

FPT is the formation professionelle et technique au Quebec. (Professional and technical training in Quebec).

That's what I could find on Google anyway.

The first site is correct,They looks scary, kind of like a extremist group.:



Second one is not it.

Where do these people come from and why don’t they just go away.

also: LOL. do you really want trade unions to go away because "they are so fucking annoying." that's an... um... interesting point of view? have you considered making a sign and protesting against them.

The Federation Of Paper & Forest Workers have stolen the British symbol for ladies toilets :confused:

3ra1n1ac, I think Ariel was expressing frustration at why they don't explicitly state what they're protesting against rather than a desire for the abolition of all trade unions.

Regardless, I still think he should construct a banner and mount a protest against trade unions

Is that what they are? Trade Unions? Are you sure. I am trying the read the french site, but it pisses me off to much. I always thought they are just people that come out of nowhere just to cause troble.

I have no idea, mate.

My post was assuming that 3ra1n1ac's info was correct. I see what I assumed about your post was pretty accurate so I got it at least half right
