CAW leaders blast van driver's acquittal Windsor Star; with files from Chatham Daily News
CHATHAM - Outraged labour leaders renewed calls for anti-scab legislation Friday after a security guard who ran over three union members during a protest over replacement workers was found not guilty.
"I'm shocked, disappointed and disheartened by the justice system," said Ken Lewenza, president of Canadian Auto Workers union Local 444, who was in Chatham on June 24, 2002, when loads of Windsor unionists protested against the use of replacement workers during a bitter strike at Navistar International Truck and Engine Corp.
