Title
How "Anti-Union" Laws Saved Canadian Labour: Certification and Striker Replacements in Post-War Industrial Relations
Abstract
This article analyzes the development in Canada of 2 critical differences between Canadian and US labour policy: union recognition and state regulation of striker replacements. The development of public policy on these issues helps illuminate the fundamental principles of state intervention in post-war labour-management relations. Canadian lawmakers have circumscribed the economic weapons of unions and established stringent certification requirements; but they have also restricted employers' recruitment of striker replacements and limited management involvement in the certification process.
