    Generations and the Transformation of Social Movements in Postwar Canada DOMINIQUE CLE´ MENT* Historians, particularly in Canada, have yet to make a significant contribution to the study of contemporary social movements. State funding, ideological conflict, and demographic change had a critical impact on social movements in Canada in the 1960s and 1970s, as this case study of the Ligue des droits de l’homme (Montreal) shows. These developments distinguished the first (1930s–1950s) from the second (1960s–1980s) generation of rights associations in Canada. Generational change was especially pronounced within the Ligue. The demographic wave led by the baby boomers and the social, economic, and political contexts of the period had a profound impact on social movements, extending from the first- and second-generation rights associations to the larger context including movements led by women, Aboriginals, gays and lesbians, African Canadians, the New Left, and others. Les historiens, en particulier au Canada, ont peu contribue´ a` ce jour a` l’e´tude des mouvements sociaux contemporains. Le financement par l’E´ tat, les conflits ide´olo- giques et les changements de´mographiques ont eu un impact de´cisif sur les mouve- ments sociaux au Canada lors des anne´es 1960 et 1970, comme le montre la pre´sente e´tude de cas sur la Ligue des droits de l’homme (Montre´al). Ces de´veloppements ont distingue´ les associations de de´fense des droits de la premie`re ge´ne´ration (anne´es 1930 aux anne´es 1950) de ceux de la deuxie`me ge´ne´ration (anne´es 1960 aux anne´es 1980) au Canada.

  • The Formation of the Canadian Industrial
    THE FORMATION OF THE CANADIAN INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS SYSTEM DURING WORLD WAR TWO Laurel Sefton MacDowell University of Toronto I The war years were a period of antagonistic labour-government rela­ tions and serious industrial unrest, which labour attributed to wage con­ trols, the failure of the government to consult on policies which directly affected employees, and the inadequacy of the existing collective bargain­ ing legislation. As a result, trade unions organized aggressively in the new war industries, struck with increasing frequency, and eventually became involved in direct political activity. At the centre of this conflict was the demand for collective bargaining. Collective bargaining was not just a means of raising wages and improving working conditions. It was a de­ mand by organized workers for a new status, and the right to participate in decision making both in industry and government. Thus, it became an issue not only on the shop floor where employers and unions met directly, but also in the political arena.1 Eventually this demand for a new status in society, was met by the introduction of a new legislative framework for collective bargaining which has been modified only slightly since that time. Yet in order to appreciate the evolution of this policy it is insuffi­ cient to consider simply the political debate or the crises which precipi­ tated the change. Even the important strikes which crystallized labour's discontent and prompted specific concessions, took place within the spe­ cial context of the war economy and a general realignment of industrial and political forces. Over a period of years, the economic tensions as­ sociated with the war generated pressures for reform which could not be contained.

Radical social movements and countercultures challenged the conservatism of the preceding decade, rejected traditional forms of politics, and demanded an alternative based on the principles of social justice, individual freedom and an end to oppression on all fronts. Yet in Canada a unique political movement emerged which embraced these principles but proposed that New Left social movements – the student and anti-war movements, the women’s liberation movement and Canadian nationalists – could bring about radical political change not only through street protests and sit-ins, but also through participation in electoral politics.

    62 bc studies An Exercise in Futility? Regionalism, State Funding, and Ideology as Obstacles to the Formation of a National Social Movement Organization in Canada 1 Dominique Clément That the Central Canada Civil Liberties Association chose to style itself the Canadian Civil Liberties Association is a completely natural expression of a whole bunch of historical and political facts about our country. The naturalness, if not the inevitability, of self-absorbed and self-serving central Canadians acting as though the politically relevant nation ended at Georgian Bay is part of the established pathos of Canadian life.2 his complaint, voiced by John Dixon, president of the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association (bccla), to Alan Borovoy, Tgeneral counsel of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (ccla), in , reflects his frustration at the arrogance displayed by the Toronto association, which claimed to be a national organization. As far as Dixon was concerned, only groups located in British Columbia were the appropriate advocates for local rights issues. Dixon was expressing the same frustrations articulated by several presidents of the bccla. For the past twenty years leaders of the bccla have challenged the ccla’s claim to national status. Tensions between the two organizations played a critical role in preventing the formation of a unified national organization for civil liberties and human rights groups in Canada. The following paper traces the history of civil liberties and human rights groups in the s and s in Canada and, in particular, in British Columbia. In part, this is an attempt to investigate one aspect of 1 To follow up on this paper and learn more about the history of the rights movement in Canada, visit: <www.historyofrights.com>.
