The applicant union filed displacement applications for certification and section 96 unfair labour practice complaints against the employer and the incumbent union.
At the outset of the hearing, the incumbent union and the employer brought motions to dismiss the applications.
The Board granted the motions, finding that the allegations of improper conduct during the representation vote campaign, even if true, would not support a finding of a breach of the Act or undermine the vote results.
The Board also noted the applicant failed to raise its concerns prior to the counting of the ballots.
The applications and complaints were dismissed.
