Original Toronto Star caption: In a personal protest against mail the strike; 71-year-old pensioner pickets postal workers outside Toronto Post Office's Terminal One at Bay and Front Sts. He said he gets $129 a week in pensions; but refused to give his name because some of these people would bust my windows and scare hell out of my wife.
