Title
Un Aspect de la consolidation du pouvoir d'État de la bourgeoisie coloniale: la législation anti-ouvrière dans le Bas-Canada, 1800-50
Abstract
Analyzes the anti-labour legislation of Lower Canada that was intended to suppress labour and civil unrest during the first half of the nineteenth century, including measures to control and discipline the workforce, ban unions and strikes, and protect the private property of the means of production. Concludes by posing two questions for future research: the extent to which British statutes (e.g., the Combination acts) had the force of law in the labour relations of Lower Canada; and the degree to which the different anti-labour laws voted in Lower and United Canada were extended beyond 1850.
