"Strike can leave Norwegians parched

Brewery workers walked out on strike Wednesday morning, beginning an industrial action that can soon leave thirsty Norwegians without their beloved colas, mineral waters and beer.

Negotiations went nowhere by the deadline of Tuesday midnight, and for the first time in the 52-year history of the industry agreement a strike was in effect.
The functionaries who walked out of Ringnes, Hansa, Borg, Coca-Cola, Aass and Mack supervise orders, warehouse stocking, administration and sale at the breweries."

Good luck and God Bless.

Ah, that explains all the Norwegians here.

They might as well close down their breweries: once all norwegians taste real beer: domestic Danish that is, they'l lnever want to drink Norwegian piss again

Thrawn, wouldn't a beer strike in Canada be the only thing that would make Canadians riot?

Yes, unless your a Montrealer. This thread is probably enough to set them off.
