Lawyers are back in court today fighting over whether foreign workers can be employed by a northern BC mine under the federal temporary foreign worker program.
17 workers have already arrived from China to work at the Tumbler Ridge project.
60 more are expected to arrive sometime over the next week.
Union lawyers are asking for an injunction to prevent any more Chinese workers from coming over.
Before court began, Jim Sinclair with the BC Federation of Labour, said documents ordered released by the court last week show HD Minings long term plan for using foreign workers is anything but temporary.
