Title
American Unionism, Communism and the Canadian Labour Movement: Some Myths and Realities
Abstract
Examines critically three core `premises of Canadian labour historiography, namely that American unions had to move into Canada to establish a strong, viable labour movement, that the contribution of the Communist Party of Canada was largely negative; and that the relationship between the CIO and its Canadian affiliate, the Canadian Congress of Labour, was based on equality and autonomy.
