wild goose chase

Maybe it's just perception but from someone who grew up in Toronto now living in Chicago, it looks like union activity and the bargaining power of public employees seems stronger in the city than even in the American cities that are (were?) known for their labour movements. I recall many kinds of public workers city-wide, from librarians to transit workers going on strike, bargaining etc. growing up in Toronto, but less so in US cities even in the Midwest and Northeast (like Boston, NYC). Maybe it's just a cross-border difference rather than one specific to Toronto?
