Limited geographic scope[edit]

I don't think this article has a limited geographic scope because the Rand Formula is only supposed to be about Canada. It is not pretending to represent the entire world of labour laws, only Canada's. Martin-C (talk) 03:44, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Plan to add section, Reception[edit]

The Rand Formula has been implemented in a variety of legal contexts and although interpreted by its critics as binding businesses to violate the free choice of their employees^[1], and as having a negative effect in that it limits individual choice on whether or not to pay union dues in a manner incompatible with market economies it has been generally well received.^[2] The positive reception of the Rand formula came mostly from unions and their allies^[3] with conservative Canadians voicing the most opposition^[4] . The rationale for the Rand formula being stated as “unions are service providers entitled to appropriate compensation for the services they provide”^[5] demonstrating that the Rand formula was viewed by the judiciary as a reasonable limit on personal economic freedom in a free market economy such as Canada's. The Formula was largely perceived by businesses and individuals in Canada as a compromise between the extremes of mandatory union membership and universal non-unionism^[6]. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bidmap (talk • contribs) 06:16, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
