Being a mediocre blogger, I forgot to post this article from TheStreet.com. It looks like their will be another vote at a Canadian store, this one in Ontario:
Labor relations are again boiling for Wal-Mart (WMT:NYSE - news - research) in Canada, as workers at a store in Windsor, Ontario, will vote on whether to unionize as early as next week.The United Food and Commercial Workers Canada (UFCW) said Wednesday it filed an application for certification with the Ontario Labor Relations Board, and an employee vote on whether to be represented by the union is likely to follow soon.

Reaction to potential unionization among Windsor workers was mixed."They say we can talk to the managers whenever we want to, but it really does not happen," maintenance worker Brent Fralic said.
But Brian Dickerson, a seasonal department manager, disagreed.
"Management treats us fairly," said Dickerson. "We don't need a union."
