Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Labour Organization in Canada, 1911 N land, and the principle has not yet found full acceptance as between Great Britain and Ireland. Between Canada and the United States, while the barriers of language and race may not present serious difficulties, other questions obviously arise; nevertheless international unionism exists in Canada in considerable strength, as has been already indicated, and, save in isolated cases, the public interest has not been seriously stirred on the subject. Unions on the whole have been national or international as they have desired. The principle of internationalism, it is true, has been sometimes opposed; employers have frequently looked askance at it and the existence of various employees' organizations, non-inter national in character, shows no unanimity on the part of the workmen] The arguments for and against internationalism are fairly obvious. On the side of internationalism is particularly the supposed advantage of associating Canadian unions with the greatly more powerful Organizations in the same trades in the United States, the View being that the financial strength and other influences of these larger United States organizations may enable the Canadian unions better to attain their objects than would be possible did the Canadian unions stand apart. There is also the advantage of the travelling card which permits union members to move more easily from place to place on either side of the line, and gives union privileges on a wider scale Employers on the other hand, have claimed that an authority exercised over Canadian unions by officers r i dent in the United States may produce conditions injurious to Canadian industrial interests. At has sometimes happened that when the members of an international union in Canada have reached a stage where it has sought the, right to make, through union officials, formal contracts with employers has, in other words, requested recognition the employers have objected to the conditions which have perhaps required them to negotiate with the United States union officials as to terms to be given Canadian workmen.

This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 930 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tenth Annual Report on Labour Organization in Canada: For the Calendar Year 1920 Sir, - I have the honour to submit the Tenth Annual Report on Labour Organiza tion in Canada, being for the calendar year 1920. The present volume, as in the case of the nine preceding reports on the subject, is wholly the work of Mr. Frank Plant, an official of the department of many years' standing and an experienced trades unionist. Mr. Plant's intimate knowledge of the subject, his keen and comprehensive outlook, and his earnest and painstaking work have combined to invest this annual volume with more than ordinary interest and value. Beginning in 1911 as a somewhat enlarged directory of trades unionism in Canada, the report has expanded year by year until, while continuing to function as a directory, it has in addition become a concise compendium of information as to all important aspects of trades union organization and development in the Dominion during a given calendar year. Further, the report has now for several years taken on a yet wider aspect and has included as within its scope a review of the leading incidents marking trades union organization and development in the world at large, but particularly all aspects of such matters as appear to have an international bearing and thus incidentally, if not more directly, affecting Canada.

Download or read book Twenthy Fifth Annual Report on Labour Organization in Canada written by Canada Department of Labour and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenthy-Fifth Annual Report on Labour Organization in Canada: For the Calendar Year 1935 The monthly issues of the Labour Gazette contain information as to conventions of the various labour organizations as well as other union activities. In Canada, labour organization falls into two classes: (1) international organizations having membership in Canada and the United States; (2) organizations whose membership is wholly in Canada. The Canadian branches of nearly all of the first group are in affiliation with the Trades and Labour Congress of Canada (referred to in a subsequent chapter). The sec-0nd group, made up of wholly Canadian bodies, is grouped according to affiliation under: Trades and Labour Congress of Canada; all-canadian Congress of Labour; National Catholic Unions, affiliated with the Federation of Catholic Workers of Canada, etc. The principal types of labour organization are the craft unions, including workmen in a single craft or a number of closely related crafts or trad-es, such as bricklayers and stone masons, and the industrial unions, those having members in the various occupations in a particular industry, for instance, in coal mining. Several of the first mentioned class include several crafts with helpers and labourers, so that they may be considered quasi-industrial unions. There is also a type of organization which organizes workers in all industries under one general union, centrally controlled, usually with sub-divisions by industries and localities. In a later section of this chapter the development of the various types of labour organization in Canada is briefly outlined.

Download or read book The Dominion of Youth written by Cynthia Comacchio and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2008-10-08 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescence, like childhood, is more than a biologically defined life stage: it is also a sociohistorical construction. The meaning and experience of adolescence are reformulated according to societal needs, evolving scientific precepts, and national aspirations relative to historic conditions. Although adolescence was by no means a “discovery” of the early twentieth century, it did assume an identifiably modern form during the years between the Great War and 1950. The Dominion of Youth: Adolescence and the Making of Modern Canada, 1920 to 1950 captures what it meant for young Canadians to inhabit this liminal stage of life within the context of a young nation caught up in the self-formation and historic transformation that would make modern Canada. Because the young at this time were seen paradoxically as both the hope of the nation and the source of its possible degeneration, new policies and institutions were developed to deal with the “problem of youth.” This history considers how young Canadians made the transition to adulthood during a period that was “developmental”—both for youth and for a nation also working toward individuation. During the years considered here, those who occupied this “dominion” of youth would see their experiences more clearly demarcated by generation and culture than ever before. With this book, Cynthia Comacchio offers the first detailed study of adolescence in early-twentieth-century Canada and demonstrates how young Canadians of the period became the nation’s first modern teenagers.
Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
Download or read book The Dawn of Canada s Century written by Gordon Darroch and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Wilfrid Laurier famously claimed that the twentieth century would be Canada's century and, indeed, its opening decade witnessed remarkable territorial, demographic, and social transformations. Yet the lives of those who lived and laboured to fashion these changes remain largely hidden from historical view. The Dawn of Canada's Century presents close and systematic interpretations of everyday lives based on the first national sample of the 1911 census. Written by many of Canada's leading historical researchers, The Dawn of Canada's Century demonstrates the wide-ranging and revealing social histories made possible by the new Canadian Century Research Infrastructure, an innovative database of national samples of decennial census microdata, from 1911 through 1951. This revealing collection sheds new light on topics including identity and language, the socio-demography of aboriginal populations, national labour market dynamics, earnings distributions, social mobility, gender and immigration experiences, and the technologies of census taking. Situating early twentieth-century Canada within international historical population studies, these essays provide new ways to understand individuals' lives and connect them to larger structural changes.

Cadigan (Memorial), Gordon Darroch (York), Lisa Dillon (UdeM), Chad Gaffield (SSHRC), Danielle Gauvreau (Concordia), Gustave Goldmann (Ottawa), Adam J.
