(Reuters) – A Teamsters group, which represents roughly 7,000 Amazon.com Inc fulfillment center workers across Canada’s Alberta and the Northwest Territories, has filed an application with the Labor Board to hold a vote for union representation.

The effort is Teamsters’ second attempt at forming a union at the Amazon site in Nisku, after a failed attempt last fall, the group said in a statement on Monday.
