The complainant, a business representative for a union local, alleged that his employer (the local) violated sections 64 and 66 of the Labour Relations Act by discharging him for his union activities and interfering with his choice of representative.
The Board deferred the section 66 discrimination and discharge allegations to arbitration, noting that an arbitrator had already dismissed the complainant's grievances on these issues.
Regarding the section 64 allegation, the Board found that the employer's inquiries into the authority of the complainant's chosen representative, who worked for a different union, did not constitute improper interference.
The complaint was dismissed.
