It's illegal to strike because there are critical services to the economy and society. Never mind politicans chopping funding to them every cycle -- they're critical.

No, it's not illegal because it's a critical service. It is illegal because the union agreed not to strike and must give 12 months notice before breaking this agreement. They only gave notice in may.
