From the article:

[The Judge] excluded employees who, under federal labour laws, have recourse to a grievance. That includes unionized and non-unionized employees.

[The Judge] said the people eligible to join the lawsuit are primarily students, retirees and casual workers.

Thanks for this snip. This is the most important part and means that this is pretty much a non-story because those employees already had the option to sue.

I dunno, this part is also pretty important:

Mr. Fortier said he believes between 40,000 and 70,000 people across Canada could meet the criteria set out by the judge.

It may not be the entire public service, but being sued by 60,000 people is nothing to sneeze at.
