Sask. court supports Walmart shareholders over store's underpaid workers

[Locutus]

Canada's largest private sector union has been dealt a blow in its long legal battle with a Walmart store in Saskatchewan that is the retail giant's only unionized outlet in the country.

The Supreme Court of Canada said Thursday it would not hear the United Food and Commercial Workers' appeal of decisions by the Saskatchewan Labour Relations Board on union accusations of unfair labour practices.

That means an application to decertify the union at the store in Weyburn will proceed and will include votes already cast by employees at the Walmart in Weyburn. The votes were set aside until the court decision.

It would seem as though they are still going to count the votes so if the employees votes for certification it will go through, if they did not, then it won't. One step at a time. Just a battle lost, not the war.

Bloody unions.

Another deep, carefully thought out opinion from Walmart.
