Law360 Canada ( September 17, 2026, 9:38 AM EDT) -- Appeal by Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) from orders granting injunctions obtained by Purolator Inc. (Purolator). The appeal arose from injunctions obtained by Purolator restraining picketing at its Ontario premises by members of CUPW, who were at the time on strike against their employer, Canada Post Corporation (Canada Post). Purolator’s motion for an injunction was initially brought on an ex parte basis, even though s. 102 of the Courts of Justice Act (CJA) did not permit ex parte injunctions in the context of labour disputes except in certain limited circumstances. The motion judge found that s. 102 did not apply since Purolator and CUPW were not parties to a “labour dispute.” He instead issued an interim injunction based on s. 101. CUPW appealed, arguing that s. 102 rather than s. 101 of the CJA applied to Purolator’s motion and that the motion judge erred in issuing the injunction under s. 101. A three-judge panel dismissed Purolator’s motion to quash the appeal, holding that issuance of the injunction was in substance governed by s. 102 of the CJA....
