- Parties: The applicant was Jennifer Harnum. The respondent was the Attorney General of Canada.

- Subject Matter: The applicant argued that, in a dispute relating to maternity leave, the employer breached its duty to “act reasonably, fairly and in good faith in administering this agreement” under article 5.02 of a collective agreement incorporated into the applicant’s terms and conditions of employment.

- Venue: This was a federal case before the Federal Court.

- Amount: No financial award was specified.
