Federal Court: Temporary Work Permits

Specialized Workers Union Dept: During a hearing related to the case on Wednesday, a federal government lawyer insisted Ms. Finley s statement shouldn t be interpreted to suggest there was anything wrong with HD Mining s applications for temporary work permits, according to Globe and Mail. We have been vigorously defending the permits on that basis ever since and hD Mining s project is now the subject of a legal challenge in Federal Court, where two unions the International Union of Operating Engineers and the Construction and Specialized Workers Union are arguing the temporary foreign worker permits should be revoked. Notwithstanding whatever concerns she Ms. Finley had initially expressed in a public, unsworn, out-of-court statement based on whatever media reports she had looked at, I was instructed to appear here today to argue that the minister felt there was no legally reviewable grounds at all in this case, Department of Justice lawyer Lorne Lachance told Federal Court in Vancouver.
