Why this matter warrants attention
The Tribunal rejected the complaint for lack of jurisdiction, ruling that internal union governance is not subject to the duty of representation. It explicitly disregarded two citations provided by the litigant, concluding they were likely AI-generated fabrications that the litigant failed to verify.
Fabricated: Case Law | Party submitted the citation 'Côté c. Syndicat canadien de la fonction publique, section locale 1500, [1992] RJDT 255 (T.A.T.)'; Tribunal found it appears not to exist, likely AI-invented, and disregarded it. || Fabricated: Case Law | Party submitted the citation 'Tremblay c. Syndicat des travailleurs de l’aluminium d’Arvida (CSN), D.T.E. 96T-303'; Tribunal found it appears not to exist, likely AI-invented, and disregarded it.
