Apparently the Canada Industrial Relations Board found this strike illegal because 72 hours strike notice wasn't given. However that seems strange because it's not a new strike, it's the previous strike resuming after a potential agreement was voted down. Regardless, don't expect this to be the end of things.
Here's a statement from ILWU on the situation.
I don't expect ANY union to call off a strike in the future unless and until any new offer is ratified. No 'good faith' get-back-to-work action ever again.
Exactly. This is bullshit and there's no way it will stand to appeal based on current law.
I fully support the striking ILWU members on this and I hope they win the appeal and get a fair contract.
Wow, BCMEA doing everything they can to destroy labour relations in Canada.
