Le Conseil canadien des relations du travail a rendu une décision dans laquelle il a étudié la légalité de certaines clauses des protocols de retour au travail, le statut des substituts engages et promus durant la grève ainsi que la doctrine de la conversion d'une grève économique en une grève dite de pratiques déloyales. Au terme de cette decision il a déclaré l'employeur «coupable» d'avoir commis un certain nombre de pratiques déloyales et a ordonné, en conséquence, que les employés grévistes soient réintégrés, une fois la grève terminée, dans leurs fonctions antérieures ou à des postes substantiellement équivalent meme si pour cela, les substituts engagés durant la grève devaient être déplacés, transférés, retrogrades ou tout simplement congédiés par l'employeur de façon à faire place aux grévistes. Selon l'approche adoptee par le Conseil, le statut des substituts originant de l'extérieur de l'unité engages en période de grève ne saurait être que temporaire et n 'est susceptible de se transformer et de devenir permanent que lors de la survenance de certains événements. L'octroi de la permanence par l'employeur avant que ces événements ne soient survenus constitue en soi une pratique déloyale ayant pour effet de convertir la grève en une grève dite de pratiques déloyales de travail et, partant, de conférer un droit absolu à la reintegration aux grévistes dont les postes ont été comblés subséquemment à la conversion.

On 18 November 1941, the gold miners of Kirkland lake struck for union recognition. The Kirkland Lake strike was a bitter struggle between the mine operators and their employees and became a national confrontation between the federal government and the labour movement over the issue of collective bargaining. Locally, the dispute was affected by the company-town environment and by the mine operators' paternalistic view of labour relations. Through the difficult winter womenths, the community -- polarized by the events -- tried to deal with both the 'political' and social impact of the conflict. The author's father, Larry Sefton, emerged as one of the local leaders of the strike, which itself was a training ground for many future trade unionists. The strike was waged in the special circumstances of the war economy, and was a microcosm of wartime developments, which produced unprecedented union growth, serious industrial unrest, hostile management response, and generally antagonistic labour/government relations. Professor MacDowell shows that, even though the strike was lost, its eventual effect on labour policy gave the dispute its particular significance. To win the strike, government intervention and the introduction of collective bargaining were necessary, yet the only intervention was by the Ontario Provincial Police, who were ordered to assist the mining companies to operate with strike-breakers. The federal government refused to intervene, in spire of virtually unanimous support for the strike by the Canadian labour movement. MacDowell confludes that the strike succeeded in unifying organized labour behind the demand for collective-bargaining legislation. It highlighted the inadequacy of the government's wartime labour poilcy, and ultimately forced the government to authorize collective bargaining, first for Crown companies and then for all industrial workers. Thus, the Kirkland Lake strike was not only an important wartime dispute affecting policy development, but it also established a special legacy for trade unionists as part of the history of their movement. --Publisher's description
