Union Steps Closer to Collectivising Sask. Wal-Mart?

The latest on attempts to unionise Canadian Wal-Marts, from the Globe and Mail.

I haven't read the judgement of the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal in this case, nor am I familiar with the provisions of the relevant labour legislation in that province, but opening up access to internal company documents for the inspection of a union *which doesn't even yet represent any employees at that store* seems slightly disturbing.

Hey, if Walmart closes yet another store, denying people bargains and tossing its workforce into the UI lines, because of a union, maybe people will get the hint.

Freedom of association: freedom to unionise, freedom to cease operations.
