I'm getting the sense that blame is being placed on the employees for the "unsustainable pensions" tanking the companies.

It's a benefit of employment and the the companies agreed to provide it. It's not the employees' fault the company couldn't perform and manage their finances well enough to account for it.

It'd be like the company I work for now going under and then blaming all us employees for taking them up on the RRSP matching program for causing it?
