The applicant union filed a grievance referral against the responding party employer.

On consent of the parties, the Ontario Labour Relations Board adjourned the application sine die for a period not exceeding one year.

The applicant referred a grievance to the Board under section 133 of the Labour Relations Act.

The responding party failed to file a Request for Hearing and Notice of Intent to Defend within the required time.

Pursuant to the Board's Rules of Procedure, the responding party was deemed to have accepted all facts stated in the application.

The Board found the responding party bound by the Collective Agreement, declared it had violated the agreement, and ordered it to pay $3,090.00 in damages plus $214.00 in costs.

The scheduled hearing was cancelled.

The applicant union applied under section 43 of the Labour Relations Act, 1995 for a direction that a first collective agreement be settled by arbitration.

The union alleged that collective bargaining had been unsuccessful due to the employer's refusal to negotiate contracting, subcontracting, and job security provisions.

The Board found that bargaining had been slowed by confusion over the scope of the union's bargaining rights, but that the employer had made a verbal proposal on the issues.

The Board concluded that it did not appear that the process of collective bargaining had been unsuccessful and dismissed the application.

The applicant union brought applications alleging that the City of Toronto and the Toronto Parking Authority were a single employer or that a sale of business had occurred, alongside a construction grievance regarding the contracting of a parking garage to a non-union contractor.

The responding parties brought preliminary motions arguing res judicata based on prior PSLRTA proceedings and that the Board should decline to exercise its discretion under section 1(4) of the Labour Relations Act.

The Board rejected the res judicata argument but dismissed the related employer application, finding no labour relations mischief to remedy as the entities had operated separately for years without the union seeking to formalize bargaining rights.

The Ontario Labour Relations Board issued a decision to correct an inadvertent error in its June 8, 2000 decision.

The previous decision incorrectly referred to the application as a section 133 matter.

The Board revised paragraph one of the decision to reflect that the application and the filed Minutes of Settlement were brought pursuant to sections 69 and 1(4) of the Labour Relations Act, 1995.

The applicant union sought to enforce Minutes of Settlement against the responding company and its principal, Rocco Cambareri.

The company had defaulted on its payment schedule and breached the collective agreement, triggering a personal liability clause in the settlement.

The responding parties failed to file a proper response or attend the hearing.

The Board deemed the facts asserted by the applicant to be accepted, found that the conditions precedent for personal liability had been met, and ordered Rocco Cambareri to pay $137,000 to the applicant.

The applicant union sought to withdraw its applications against the responding parties.

After the fee was paid, the Carpenters and the responding party sought an adjournment pending the outcome of another proceeding.

The Board denied the adjournment, severing the grievance into a 'hiring hall' issue and a 'foreman' issue.

The Board found the Carpenters had no legal interest in the hiring hall issue and dismissed their intervention for that portion of the hearing, directing that the hiring hall issue proceed first.
