Workers win Union at Java Blend in Halifax. Boycott is over.

Unless a deal is reached in short order, a boycott of all Java Blend businesses and their products (to be considered hot cargo) will be launched Sunday.

To avoid a boycott, SEIU Local 2 says Java Blend needs to drop its frivolous objections, come to the bargaining table, and reach a fair agreement.

Java Blend's terminated workers will hold a public rally at the North St cafe in Halifax on Saturday.

Nine Java Blend employees, including the four leaders of a union drive, were illegally terminated last week according to ULP complaint.
