Book excerpt: The town of Ladysmith was one of the most important coal-mining communities on Vancouver Island during the early twentieth century. The Ladysmith miners had a reputation for radicalism and militancy and engaged in bitter struggles for union recognition and economic justice, most notably during the Great Strike of 1912-14. This strike, one of the longest and most violent labour disputes in Canadian history, marked a watershed in the history of the town and the coal industry. When Coal Was King illuminates the origins of the 1912-14 strike by examining the development of the coal industry on Vancouver Island, the founding of Ladysmith, the experience of work and safety in the mines, the process of political and economic mobilization, and how these factors contributed to the development of identity and community. While the Vancouver Island coal industry and the strike have been the focus of a number of popular histories, this book goes beyond to emphasize the importance of class, ethnicity, gender, and community in creating the conditions for the emergence and mobilization of the working-class population. Informed by currend academic debates on the matter and within the discipline, this readable history takes into account extensive archival research, and will appeal to historians and others interested in the history of Vancouver Island.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Conclusion: Canada is a major consumer of energy and has depended on oil for much of its growth...Other fuels and sources of energy will have to be developed in Canada in the next two decades to supplement and substitute for dwindling supplies of conventional oil...Wind, solar and perhaps tidal power may be able to contribute in a small way...Natural gas, heavy oil, oil sands, hydro and nuclear power are available...All of these sources of enery will be required but they will still be inadequate to meet total needs in Canada. Clearly coal, Canada's major energy resource, must be exploited. Coal is available in western Canada in abundance, it can be produced at costs that are competitive with other sources of new energy, and it can be used efficiently and safely. Its development can assist in providing Canada's domestic needs, it can provide spin-off beneftis to otlher industries, and it can help to improve our balance of trade ane expenditures abroad. Substantial benefits will acrue to Canada as a whole, and to western Canada in particular, from the exploitation of this important resource.
