CORAM:The Chief Justice and La Forest, L'Heureux-Dubé, Sopinka, Gonthier, Cory,

                                McLachlin and Iacobucci JJ.                                                                                                                              

 

                The application for leave to appeal and the application for leave to cross-appeal, which we received yesterday and which we have accepted to deal with expeditiously by waiving the ordinary rules of procedure, are granted.  The request for an order to the effect that the appeal be heard on the basis of the existing record and factums as filed in the Federal Court of Appeal, except for the Attorney General, who will be filing a factum addressing the merits and affidavit evidence if necessary and that the hearing take place in Ottawa today, Thursday, October 22, 1992, is refused.

 

 

                Having granted leave, we are obviously of the view that this appeal will raise issues of public, indeed, national, importance.  The decisions of this Court, being the court of final appeal, are binding upon all other courts in the land.  We feel that we would be remiss in our duty if we acquiesced to the request of the appellant to hear this appeal on one day's notice.  This case raises constitutional questions that will eventually have to be stated and served upon all Attorneys General in the country, as is their right.  In addition to the Attorneys General, there possibly will be other parties who will want to, and may well be entitled to, seek intervener status and, as is the right of the provinces, have their views heard by the Court.  This we cannot achieve today, nor indeed could we be able to do so adequately prior to the holding of the Referendum on Monday, October 26, let alone deliberate and hand down our decision in this important matter.

 

 

                La demande d'autorisation d'appel et la demande d'autorisation d'appel incident, que nous avons reçues hier et avons accepté de traiter de façon expéditive, sans suivre les règles de procédure ordinaires, sont accordées.  L'ordonnance demandée afin de permettre que l'appel soit entendu sur le fondement du dossier et des mémoires déposés à la Cour d'appel fédérale, sauf pour le procureur général, qui déposera un mémoire traitant du fond et une preuve par affidavit au besoin, et de permettre aussi que l'appel soit entendu à Ottawa aujourd'hui le jeudi 22 octobre 1992, est refusée.

 

                Ayant accordé l'autorisation, nous sommes évidemment d'avis que le présent appel soulève des questions d'importance pour le public et d'intérêt national.  Les décisions de notre Cour, qui est la cour de dernier ressort, lient tous les autres tribunaux du Canada.  Nous estimons que ce serait mal remplir notre devoir d'accepter, comme l'appelant le demande, d'entendre cet appel à un jour de préavis.  L'appel soulève des questions constitutionnelles qui devront être formulées et signifiées à tous les procureurs généraux du pays, comme ils y ont droit.  Outre les procureurs généraux, il pourrait y avoir d'autres parties qui souhaiteraient obtenir le statut d'intervenant, et pourraient y avoir droit, et souhaiteraient se faire entendre par la Cour, comme c'est le droit des provinces.  Nous ne pouvons faire tout cela aujourd'hui ni, bien sûr, le faire adéquatement avant la tenue du référendum le lundi 26 octobre, et encore moins prendre le temps de délibérer avant de faire connaître notre décision sur cette question importante.

RESERVED / EN DÉLIBÉRÉ

 

 

Nature of the case:

 

Labour law - Labour relations - Collective agreement - Interpretation - Collective agreement entered into between Appellant and Respondent providing that when the Appellant, on its own, or through an affiliated company, performs the kind of work covered by the collective agreement, the terms of the collective agreement would be applicable - Company affiliated with the Appellant winning contract to build building - Union taking grievance to arbitration and arbitrator, using extrinsic evidence in aid of his interpretation, finding that collective agreement had been breached - Did Court of Appeal improperly review decision of arbitrator? - Did Court of Appeal misconstrue the basis of the use of extrinsic evidence? - Did Court of Appeal err by imposing an unrealistic standard of interpretation of collective agreements and in restricting the use of interpretive aids.

Nature de la cause:

 

Droit du travail - Relations de travail - Convention collective - Interprétation - La convention collective conclue entre l'appelant et l'intimée prévoit que si, de son chef ou par l'entremise d'une compagnie affiliée, l'appelant effectue un travail régi par la convention collective, les modalités de celle‐ci s'appliquent - La compagnie affiliée à l'appelant a obtenu le contrat de construction d'un immeuble - Le syndicat a référé un grief à l'arbitrage, et l'arbitre, qui a utilisé une preuve extrinsèque pour faciliter son interprétation, a conclu que la convention collective avait été violée - La Cour d'appel a‐t‐elle irrégulièrement révisé la décision de l'arbitre? - La Cour d'appel a‐t‐elle interprété erronément le fondement de l'utilisation d'une preuve extrinsèque? - La Cour d'appel a‐t‐elle commis une erreur en imposant une norme d'interprétation des conventions collectives irréaliste et en limitant le recours aux moyens d'interprétation?
