The mis en cause employee was dismissed by the appellant employer for composing and distributing a document ridiculing the employer during a union organizing campaign.
The employee filed a complaint under the Labour Code, and the investigation commissioner ordered his reinstatement, finding the employer's stated reason was a pretext and not the true reason for dismissal.
The Labour Court, Superior Court, and Court of Appeal upheld this decision.
The Supreme Court of Canada dismissed the employer's appeal, holding that the lower tribunals did not exceed their jurisdiction, as they properly applied the test to determine whether the employer had proven 'another good and sufficient reason' to rebut the presumption of dismissal for union activities.
