Ironside facing charge
For helping U.S. union seamen picket a vessel whose owners contravened a collective agreement, UFAWU general executive board member Walter Ironside faces a charge, to be heard in provincial court here November 5, of operating a vessel dangerously.
The incident out of which the charge arose occurred April 15 when the U.S. ship Ultra Sea sailed into Burrard Inlet headed for the Alberta Wheat Pool dock.
Ironside was waiting for it aboard his troller Tammy in company with members of the U.S.-based Masters, Mates and Pilots Union, one of three unions representing U.S. seamen on deep sea ships and part of the International Longshoremen and Warehouseman's Union.
The union claimed the Ultra Sea's owners violated collective agreement by re-registering her shortly after she was built and
manning her with SIU masters and mates.
All maritime unions were requested to help protest the action. Ironside was carrying union men bent on informational picketing when the alleged "dangerous operation" of his vessel took place.
The injunction sought here in court by the owners of the Ultra Sea to prevent picketing of the vessel was denied.
