- Parties: The applicant was Jason Wattleworth. The respondents were Unifor Local 25 and Bell Canada. 

- Subject Matter: This judicial review application challenged a Canada Industrial Relations Board decision, which dismissed the applicant’s complaint against the respondent without a hearing. The application alleged that the applicant’s complaint had been filed on time. The application also alleged that the decision failed to fully consider the principles of procedural fairness, natural justice, and other procedures that it was required to follow; misapplied the legal test for determining whether the complaint was out of time; made that determination in a capricious and arbitrary way and without a hearing or a consideration of relevant materials that the respondent possessed but refused to produce; failed to rule on the applicant’s request for documentary disclosure; and failed to consider all the complaint's relevant facts before rendering its decision. This case is ongoing. 

- Date: The hearing was set on Feb. 13, 2025. 

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

- Amount: No financial award was specified.
