Canada Post Corporation v. Canadian Union of Postal Workers, 2020 BCSC 503

Tamara Ramusovic and Natasha Edgar, on behalf of the Union, successfully defended a judicial review petition seeking to overturn a labour arbitrator’s decision. The BC Supreme Court dismissed the employer’s petition for reason of undue delay in filing the petition with the Court. Although there were no applicable statutory timeframes for the filing of the petition, we successfully argued that in the circumstances of the case, the employer’s delay in seeing judicial relief was unreasonable and undermined the proper functioning of labour dispute resolution in general, and the parties’ contractual choices about how to resolve their disputes under their collective agreement.
