The applicant union filed a grievance under section 124 of the Labour Relations Act seeking remittances from the respondent employer.
The employer argued it was not bound by the collective agreement, alleging the union representative misrepresented the terms of a voluntary recognition agreement before it was signed.
The Board found no material misrepresentation, concluding the employer simply misunderstood the scope of the agreement.
The Board declared the employer bound by the Provincial Agreement and remained seized of the quantum of damages.
