November 15, 2011 - SFL to Argue Provincial Government Failed to Consult
The Saskatchewan Federation of Labour, along with two dozen additionalplaintiffs (unions) and the case's three intervenor unions, will be in court today to argue that the provincial government failed in its responsibility to consult with working people and their organizations prior to the introduction of Bills 5 and 6.
Working people across Saskatchewan were disappointed today to learn that, in spite of the warnings of academics and the concerns of thousands, the Government of Saskatchewan has forced Bill 85 through the Legislature.
Earlier this morning, the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal released an important decision recognizing that Canadian law has evolved to a point where a right to strike may be protected by the Constitution.
