Title
Samuel Gompers and the Berlin Decisions of 1902
Abstract
Examines the historical context of the resolutions of the 1902 convention of the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada at Berlin, Ontario (the city was renamed as Kitchener during the First World War) that subordinated the TLC to Samuel Gompers' American Federation of Labor. Concludes that the decisions resulted in deep divisions in Canadian labour, including a separate movement in Quebec.
