Winnipeg Sun: Ex-U of W prof launches civil suit over his old job

A former University of Winnipeg physics professor is renewing a legal fight over his old job.

Ed Tomchuk taught physics at the university for 44 years before he was forced into retirement two years ago.

Tomchuk, 75, lost a court challenge that would have allowed him to continue teaching after a collective agreement came into effect in August 2005 requiring all faculty staff retire by age 69.
