Collective bargaining under the Canada Labour Code : remedies when parties fail to resolve labour disputes / Sebastian Spano.: YM32-2/2009-46E-PDF
"The Canada Labour Code, like most labour relations statutes in Canada, provides various remedies that parties to collective bargaining can access when they reach an impasse in negotiations to conclude a collective agreement and resolve labour disputes. The Code also confers certain powers on elected officials to intervene where there may be a compelling public interest in doing so. Interest in these remedies becomes acute in periods of prolonged strikes or lockouts, particularly where a work stoppage has the potential to interfere with public safety, public health or the general economic health of the nation. The various mechanisms in the Code that are potentially available to compel the parties to collective bargaining to resolve a dispute, especially where there is a strike, lockout or other work stoppage, are discussed in this paper"--p.1.
