In March 1892, the conductors and trainmen's unions on the CPR's Western Division won a week-long strike and a signed contract, the first on the CPR. The walk-out was forced upon the unions by company president Van Home's decision to drive them off the CPR by administering "loyalty" oaths to company trainmen and conductors. During the strike, the company's extensive use of anti-American propaganda against the two international unions made the question of international unionism a key issue in the dispute. The unions won the strike because almost all the conductors and trainmen on the Eastern Division heeded the strike call, contrary to Van Home's expectations, and because they proved, by shutting down adjacent divisions, that they could turn the strike into a nationwide tie-up if necessary. Recognizing that breaking the strike under these circumstances would be unnecessarily costly. Van Home capitulated. The strike is historically significant, first, because it marked the beginning of modem union recognition and collective bargaining on the cpr — and subsequently on other Canadian railways — and second, because it noticeably strengthened the position of international craft unions on Canadian railways.

This bibliography continues the work of the Bulletin of the Committee on Canadian Labour History in attempting to present a record of books, theses, articles, and related materials produced in the year preceding this volume (i.e., 1979). Through some warp in time, however, the Committee has yet to present the 1978 bibliography. Readers will therefore find one 1979 bibliography, one 1978 bibliography, and a third section entitled "Update in Labour Bibliography." [Note: See also the database, Canadian Labour History, 1976-2009, published at Memorial University of Newfoundland.] --Compiler's introduction

En 1979, au congrès de Saskatoon, le professeur Stuart Jamieson avait reçu, à l'occasion de sa retraite comme professeur à l'Université de Colombie Britannique, une mention d'honneur pour sa contribution à la recherche en relations industrielles au Canada. Suite à ce précédent, l'Association décida d'établir une distinction annuelle de l'A.C.R.I. La première fut décernée le 2 juin 1980, lors de l'assemblée annuelle de l'association, au professeur Harry Douglas Woods. Voici le texte de présentation du président de l'A.C.R.I., le professeur Gérard Hébert. Le texte de présentation est reproduit ci-dessous.
