Dofasco. A remarkable human company. Fond recollections by Timothy Pritchard, former Editor-in-Chief

"There are two things I remember about Dofasco:

The first is its employee friendly vibe, which had a lot to do with it being a non-union shop and an image

cultivated by the Sherman family.

Dofasco didn't need a union. Whatever the Steelworkers Union negotiated with Stelco - the other Canadian steel company - was immediately given to Dofasco workers.

The second is that Dofasco always had a swell Xmas party for all its workers and their families.

This provided a good front-of-ROB picture at the very least!

Sadly, both Dofasco and Stelco are history, as are the tens of thousands of jobs they provided."
