    IWA, industry trade insults By Lindsay Kines, Times Colonist
    'It's a sad day for B.C.'s labour movement, because it doesn't only affect us, it affects all the labour movements in B.C.,' said Sucha Hayer, who has worked 34 years at the Weyerhaeuser mill in Chemainus.

    'I was really, really shocked to hear that ruling went against us, but nevertheless, when you've got a government like we've got in Victoria -- anti-labour -- and you've got a union-bashing company like Weyerhaeuser . . . this is the result.'
