    Hiring temporary workers to protect life and property is allowed. The workers on strike are the bank’s security staff. Seems like hiring private security during the strike would be allowed under the current law.

        Totally agree. If he had said what you said then I’d say he was a cool guy. However, he didn’t say the law was unjust or that he would change the law if he had the power to do so. He said that Carney and the Liberals are criminals who are “defying the laws of this country”. I’d expect shallow rhetoric like that from the Conservative leader.
