However, the world's apathetic reaction to the strike, as well as the immense costs it incurred, led Abootman to end the strike prematurely in exchange for free bubblegum and vouchers entitling every Canadian to a free meal at Bennigan's.
</p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">However, Canadians quickly realized the futility of the strike, and set Abootman and his aides adrift. It is not known what became of the WGA following these events.
