Title: Norway Beer Crisis!
Post by: Thrawn on October 16, 2002, 09:44:41 AM: "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.

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