The Manitoba Labour Board dismissed a teacher’s complaint against the Manitoba Teachers’ Society after finding that the union reasonably relied on legal advice to settle and withdraw a pay overpayment grievance without her consent. The complaint was timely because the union continued representing her into 2026, but disagreement with the settlement did not establish arbitrary conduct under section 20.
