Weber v. Ontario Hydro, 2 S.C.R. 929 is a leading decision of the Supreme Court of Canada where the Court held that a labour abitration board was a "court of competent jurisdiction" within the meaning of section 24(1) of the Charter, and could grant declarations and damages. Consequently, the board has exclusive jurisdiction over the matter, and so employees cannot bring suits concerning matters under a collective agreement to court.
