     REASONS FOR ORDER

    

[1]      In support of its second application for leave to intervene, the Public Service Alliance of Canada invokes as new facts the issuance of the decision of a Human Rights Tribunal in the case of P.S.A.C. v. Treasury Board and the filing of proceedings in judicial review of that decision. These facts, in my view, do not change significantly the relevant context in which I was invited to consider the first application made by the applicant and do not affect, in any way, the reasoning which led me to the view that justice would not be better served by allowing this applicant to participate in the present proceedings, nor would the Court really benefit from its presence.

[2]      I have no choice but to refuse a second time to allow the applicant to intervene.
