UFCW Canada represents workers at a number of farms in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Quebec. Last May it brought an appeal on behalf of three Ontario agricultural workers. In 2003, they along with most of their more than 200 fellow workers voted to create a UFCW Canada bargaining unit at a mushroom grow house factory farm in Kingsville, Ontario. The certificate was never issued because of the exclusion under the AEPA.
