Description

Members of the Theatre Employees Union (Local B-72 IATSE) picket in front of Famous Players Capitol 6 on Granville Streets theatre row October 19, as Famous Players launched bid before Labour Relations Board for a ruling declaring that hot declarations against theatre advertising in Pacific Press media constituted an illegal strike. The LRB dismissed the application November 2, ruling on a technicality that Famous Players did not have standing in what was a collective agreement issue between Pacific Press and its unions.
