The union representing British Columbia port supervisors in a dispute with their employers has applied for a judicial review of federal Labour Minister Steven MacKinnon’s decision last month to order them back to work.
In an application dated Dec. 3, the International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 514 says it is seeking to quash MacKinnon’s direction on Nov. 12 to the Canada Industrial Relations Board to order a resumption of port operations in B.C. after a lockout imposed by employers.
