The problem is that PCL management provided the list with numerous inconsistencies from the certified list. This was a product of some internal procedural problems within the PCL Crew Planning department as well as some information that was never updated in the company database after errors were found in the certifying process. Because of the short notice nature of Bloch's request, the initially produced lists were not accurate and they were not sourced from the proper department within PCL.

There was not an effort on anyones part to manipulate the list and had more time been given to complete the task it would have turned out correct the first time. Its unfortunate that seniority list maintenance is an entirely manual process and the company even has inconsistencies in data between departments but thats just the way it is at PCL.

Proper data is now in the hands of Bloch but these now resolved inconsistencies are not the basis of the current dispute.
