UFCW on Unionizing Wal-Mart
Saskatchewan Court of Appeal Dismisses Wal-Mart’s Latest Appeal
November 16, 2006
Saskatoon, SK – Wal-Mart’s latest appeal, regarding their
application to prohibit the Saskatchewan Labour Relations Board from hearing
any applications concerning themselves, was heard before the Saskatchewan Court
of Appeal on November 15, 2006.
In the matter of Wal-Mart’s appeal of Justice Gerein’s previous lower-court decision regarding the alleged bias of the Labour Relations Board against Wal-Mart, the Court reaffirmed the view of Justice Gerein and dismissed Wal-Mart’s appeal.
Wal-Mart also obtained a sworn affidavit from former Vice Chair Matkowski and was asking that the Court allow it to be filed at the Court of Appeal as “fresh evidence”. The Court dismissed Wal-Mart’s application to file this affidavit.
Paul Meinema, president of UFCW Local 1400 commented “The union is pleased with the outcome of this appeal and will continue to advance the rights of the workers.”
