Reader Julie Eisenband emailed, asking about the results of the June 4, 2004 vote in Manitoba, Canada on whether a local WM should be unionized. Unfortunately, I have no information about this vote.
But it is important to note that this is the second attempt by the United Food and Commercial Workers to unionize the Thompson store. The first attempt last year failed by a narrow margin of 61 to 54. Last time the vote count was delayed because WM objected to the voting procedure, and the union responded by saying that WM illegally influenced its workers who had previously indicated that a majority would join the union.
