The applicant union sought to set aside a representation vote held following the restructuring of the school board, alleging irregularities including inadequate posting of the notice of vote and locked doors at polling stations.
The Ontario Labour Relations Board declined to inquire into the allegations under section 23(19) of the Public Sector Labour Relations Transition Act, 1997.
The Board found that even if the allegations were true, the number of affected voters was too small to alter the outcome of the vote, and the results reflected the true wishes of the majority of the employees in the bargaining units.
