Canada Post workers union loses challenge of back-to-work order | CBC News

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) argued that using Section 107 to force an end to the strike was unconstitutional, and questioned whether striking workers' Charter rights had been violated. In a hearing decision, the CIRB found the right to strike is essential but not absolute. The board ultimately concluded that use of Section 107 does not violate the Charter. The board also found it does not have the authority to review the minister's direction to suspend the workers' right to strike.
