Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: A long; long haul; not over yet. Radio Shack employees in Barrie went on strike in August; seeking a first contract; a month after negotiations collapsed. They're still out. This week the Ontario Labor Relations Board upheld a charge of bargaining in bad faith against the company; noting it had flouted the board's orders to cease illegal tactics against the union and used them as a license for continued violations. Firings; intimidation were used.
