Supreme court judge rejects injunction against Cascade Aerospace picket lines

VANCOUVERJune 13, 2014 /CNW/ - A judge has upheld the right of striking workers at Cascade Aerospace to picket their Abbotsford employer in a dispute over equal benefits for young workers.
"This judgement confirms workers have a legal right to establish picket lines across driveways at their job site and peacefully communicate the issues of the dispute," said Gavin McGarrigle, Unifor's BC area director. "Regardless, the best route to ending this dispute is at the bargaining table, not in the courts. We will continue our legal picket line to protect the benefits of the next generation of Cascade employees."  Read more here.
