Abstract

Preliminary motion relating to admissibility of evidence.

On October 13, and 14, 1977, Brian Risdon filed grievances un­der the collective agreement between the parties. In the first he alleged that he had been discriminatorily demoted and sought re­instatement to his former position without loss of salary, senior­ity or benefits. In the second he alleged that he had been dismissed without reasonable cause and disciplined twice for the same alleged conduct and sought reinstatement without loss of benefits, wages or seniority and to have the alleged incident stricken from his record. Both grievances were finally denied by letters of January 30, 1978, signed by R. S. W. Rae, director of la­bour relations for the city.
