In what circumstances will the ultimate discipline of a grievor be dismissal rather than unpaid suspension?

New Brunswick, Canada


The following excerpt is from Stone v. Town of Woodstock, 2005 NBQB 249 (CanLII):

Thus, in many instances the ultimate discipline, for example, dismissal, would be more severe than the unpaid suspension that would be subsumed in the final result. This is what happened in Nova Scotia Teachers’ Union v. Chignecto- Central Regional School Board ( DeGrass Grievance) [2004] N.S.L.A.A. No. 11. The grievor was suspended then, in the end, discharged. That did not lead to an absurd result although the opposite would have been ludicrous.
