Le congédiement d'un salarié au seul motif de sa participation à une grève illégale contredit-il le maintien légal du lien de salariat à la suite d'une grève? Comment l'envisager en regard de la protection de l'activité syndicale? S'agit-il de deux questions distinctes ou, ou contraire, d'une même réalité? La prise de position récente de la Cour d'Appel à ce sujet, à la suite de jugements parfois divergents du Tribunal du travail, est d'autant plus importante que le Code du travail prétend maintenant assurer expressément aux salariés le recouvrement de leur emploi à la suite d'une grève.

Les dispositions « anti-briseurs de grève » du Code du travail ont-elles modifié la détermination de la légalité d'un piquet de grève? Concrètement, l'association accréditée serait-elle maintenant habilitée à s'assurer de l'efficacité de l'arrêt de travail? Par ailleurs, quelles sont les conséquences juridiques du refus de travailler, par solidarité syndicale, de salariés se rattachant à des unités de négociations non visées par la grève?

L'auteur remet en question l'hypothèse que la grève de l'amiante de 1949 ait été l'élément moteur du développement de la conscience ouvrière au Québec. La grève du textile de 1937 avait suscité un même type de prise de conscience: les deux conflits s'étaient développés de la même façon au niveau local; les deux ont lié des objectifs généraux concernant l'ensemble de l'industrie; dans les deux cas, la grève est déclenchée après que les travailleurs n'aient pas réussi à obtenir la reconnaissance de leur syndicat par le patron et l'obtention d'un contrat collectif; et finalement, les dirigeants de la C.T.C.C. assumèrent la direction des deux grèves.

During the war years extensive trade union growth was accompanied by serious industrial unrest. Wage controls, inadequate labour representation on war policy making bodies, and the absence of collective bargaining legislation resulted in antagonistic labour-government relations. The government's strict enforcement of wage controls and refusal to enact legislation to handle the growing number of "recognition strikes' ' contributed to labour's growing alienation. The T.L.C. and the C.C.L., despite their organizational rivalry, united to demand new legislation modelled after the American Wagner Act. The labour movement also forged a formal relationship with the C.C.F. The federal government decided to maintain wage controls despite their unpopularity; however, the C.C.F. 's growing popularity, its electoral victories, and the success of the recently passed Ontario collective bargaining legislation, caused the government to introduce a new labour relations policy in 1944 (PC 1003). This order became the basis for a new labour relations framework which recognized the status of collective bargaining. Labour did not achieve significant representation on government policy making bodies, but it did achieve representation on the permanent tribunals which were set up to administer the labour legislation. At the local level, employees were more readily able to organize into trade unions and negotiate collective agreements. This permanently undermined traditional management prerogatives and to this extent employees achieved a new status and a degree of participation in industrial decision making.

The Halifax baking and confectionery industry was characterized by the uneasy coexistence of craft bakeries, manufactories, and one factory. A stratified system of production produced a stratified labour force, in which the journeymen bakers alone were able to organize a union. Their struggles reveal a cleavage between factory workers and other journeymen in the industry.

Les recherches récentes sur les artisans aux États-Unis mettent l'accent sur le caractère évolutif du développement capitaliste, sur la transmission des idées révolutionnaires du XVIIIe siècle au mouvement ouvrier du siècle suivant, sur la résistance des travailleurs à la discipline du travail en système capitaliste et sur le comportement des foules comme source d'analyse de la conscience populaire.

This paper examines charivaris and whitecapping in 19th-century North America. Establishing the presence of the charivan/shivaree over the course of the century and of whitecapping in the years 1885-1905, the study examines two particular ritualistic forms of enforcing community standards and behaviour. Commonly directed against unnatural marriage, sexual offenders, wife beaters, and those who defied acceptable standards of behaviour (including employers and strikebreakers), charivaris and whitecapping posed the threatening order of custom against the rule of law. As such, they challenged, implicitly if not explicitly, a developing bourgeois hegemony. In studying them, we learn much about society and culture, order and disorder, in the 19th-century past, forces crucial to an understanding of the plebeian and working-class communities.
