You have just received an OLRB order as a result of a consultation you conducted for a client last month. You strongly believe that the OLRB misapplied important evidence that you discussed during the consulta- tion process. Unfortunately, you were unable to call a witness because of the nature of this proceeding. What do you do? Scenario 3 Jeremy is a licensed paralegal providing legal advice to a union on the termination of bargaining rights under section 63 of the LRA. What pro- cess required for termination of rights, as well as statutory authority, must Jeremy be aware of before giving advice? REVIEW QUESTIONS 1. Is the construction industry governed by the provisions of the LRA? 2. Can a trade union discriminate against an employee on the basis of gender? 3. What is an information bulletin and how would you use it as a practitioner? 4. The case of Labourers' International Union of North America, Local 527 v John Entwistle Construction Limited, 1979 CanLII 956, [1979] OLRB Rep Nov 1096, is referenced in Information Bulletin 19- Requests for Reconsideration. Why is this case important in this context? 5. What four options exist in the hearing process at the OLRB? 6. What is an unfair practice? 7. Name two acts, other than the LRA, from which applications to the OLRB may arise? 8. Does the OLRB have sufficient control over its internal proceedings and rules? Support your answer. 9. What is the Pay Equity Hearings Tribunal? 10. What use does the Filing Guide serve for practitioners?
