Discriminate against or threaten to discriminate against a person with respect to employment or a term or condition of employment or membership in a trade union. Intimidate or coerce or impose a pecuniary or other penalty on a person. Generations of politicians and policy realized that union/management issues shouldn"t be left out courts. Class : could go the other way, depending on judge, couldn"t predict outcomes well when courts were involved. So the legislature took it out of the common law and gave authority to the bc labor relations board: board has representation from management and labor.
