UPDATE: AIR CANADA / AVEOS CERTIFICATION ISSUE AT THE CIRB
Dear Brothers and Sisters:
On November 22nd and 23rd in Ottawa. Transportation District 140 and Representatives from the Local Lodges across Canada attended the Canadian Industrial Relations Board (CIRB) hearings regarding the applications to split the bargaining units, and, the Union’s Section 35 Common Employer Application.
After opening statements by all of the parties Lawyers for AVEOS were directed to proceed with their case by CIRB Chair Elizabeth MacPherson.
Both days, November 22nd and 23rd were taken up with testimony and cross-examination of the first three (3) witnesses that AVEOS intended to call.
The Union thanks you for your continued support and will provide you with any further information as it become available.
