Description

Letter Carriers Union of Canada pickets outside Vancouver's main post office as the union stepped up its strategy of rotating strikes in the face of Canada Post's use of strikebreakers to carry mail. The following day, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Mary Southin brought down an injunction limiting pickets to three throughout the "county of Vancouver" — which according to the ruling, extended north to Powell River and east to Hope. The LCUC was successful, however, in winning a collective agreement that removed concessions from the table.
