     REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

     (Delivered from the bench at Montréal

     on Monday, October 27, 1997)

DENAULT J.A.

[1]      Despite what is a very laconic decision of the Canada Labour Relations Board which could hardly not have invited a challenge, the Court is not satisfied that the inclusion of the analyst accountants in the bargaining unit was an error such as would warrant the intervention of this Court.

[2]      The application for judicial review will be dismissed.
