Nihal Mathur vs.
Bank of Nova Scotia
Nihal Mathur was fired twice by the Bank of Nova Scotia
and was successful in both actions brought under the
unjust dismissal sections of the
Canada
Labour Code. In the second action,
although not resulting in reinstatement, he did succeed
in proving that the Bank's actions were taken in bad
faith, which resulted in an award which could exceed 4
years compensation.

Re Merkley Sportswear
Ron Glaister thought he was helping his neighbour when
he agreed to become a director and minority shareholder
of a new business. When the company became insolvent he
faced some devestating news. The Ministry of Labour
sought to recover from him unpaid wages and vacation pay
in excess of $150,000. An order to pay was issued
against him. |
