Accused sentenced to 36 months for domestic assault causing bodily harm and assault with a weapon.
The accused pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon, and breach of probation in a domestic violence context.
The court noted the accused's lengthy history of non-compliance and high risk of violent recidivism.
The court sentenced the accused to 36 months of custody in addition to 99 days of pre-sentence custody credit, along with a 10-year weapons prohibition, a DNA order, and a non-communication order with the victim.
Individual employee cannot use section 106(2) to determine employment status absent union-employer dispute.
The applicant, a former school custodian, applied under section 106(2) of the Labour Relations Act for a determination that he was an employee rather than an independent contractor.
The respondent union opposed the application, noting there was no dispute between the union and the employer regarding his status.
The Board dismissed the application, affirming previous jurisprudence that section 106(2) is intended only to resolve disputes between the immediate parties to a collective bargaining relationship, not to provide a forum for individual employees to question their status when the union and employer are in agreement.
