The applicant union applied for certification under the construction industry provisions of the Labour Relations Act.
The respondent employer raised preliminary objections regarding the applicant's standing, the appropriateness of the geographic area, and the lack of notice to employees and another union local.
The Board dismissed the preliminary objections, finding the applicant had standing and that notice was properly given.
The parties subsequently reached an agreement settling the appropriate bargaining unit and adjourning the related employer application.
The Board issued certificates to the applicant based on the agreed bargaining unit and membership evidence.
