Company building Vancouver transit line guilty of intimidating foreign workers
In a complaint to the B.C. Human Rights Commission, the Construction and Specialized Workers' Union claimed that SELI Canada and its partner SNC-Lavalin tried to get foreign workers on the project to sign a petition saying they didn't want the union to represent them in an earlier human rights discrimination complaint. A human rights tribunal has upheld the union claim and ordered the company to cease such action and pay half the union's costs of launching the complaint.
