''Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union, Local 580 v Dolphin Delivery Ltd'', () 2 S.C.R. 573, is the seminal Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms decision that states that the Charter applies to governmental action, and to the common law except where matters are solely between private parties. Nevertheless, judges should interpret the common law in the light of the Charter. == Background == The Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union applied to the court to have Dolphin Delivery and Supercourier declared allies of Purolator, an employer of union members. This would have allowed the union to picket Dolphin while its employees would not have to cross the picket line. The BC Labour Board declined to hear an application since the dispute was governed under the Canada Labour Code, as ''Purolator'' was an interprovincial company. Dolphin obtained an injunction against secondary picketing on their premises on the basis that the common law does not permit secondary picketing. The action was brought by the union on the basis that their rights to freedom of expression (section 2(b)) and freedom of association (section 2(d)) under the Charter were violated. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union, Local 580 v Dolphin Delivery Ltd」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
