Organized Labour Campaigns for Canadian Dramatic Programming
Acting in the Name of Culture? Organized Labour Campaigns for Canadian Dramatic Programming Amanda Coles McMaster University Abstract: This article has two main objectives: to identify a link between orga- nized labour representing English-language independent Canadian film and tele- vision production workers and developments in Canadian broadcasting policy, and to analyze the complex role of labour within the Canadian broadcasting policy network. The author uses union interventions around the Canadian Radio- television and Telecommunications Commission’s 1999 Television Policy and the decline in Canadian dramatic programming as a case study to analyze the strategy and efficacy of labour’s involvement in the broadcasting policymaking process. She argues that labour’s adoption of a coalition framework, with the for- mation of the Coalition of Canadian Audio-visual Unions, has positively impacted labour’s power as policy actors in the Canadian broadcasting policy sphere. Résumé : Cet article a deux objectifs principaux : d’une part, identifier le lien qui existe entre les politiques sur la radiodiffusion canadienne et les syndicats qui représentent les travailleurs anglophones au Canada dans les secteurs de la pro- duction indépendante télévisuelle et cinématographique ; d’autre part, analyser le rôle complexe de la main-d’œuvre au sein du réseau d’action publique pour la radiodiffusion canadienne. L’auteur a recours à des interventions syndicales qui se rapportent à la Politique télévisuelle de 1999 du Conseil de la radiodiffusion et des télécommunications canadiennes ainsi qu’au déclin dans la production de programmation dramatique au Canada pour effectuer une étude de cas sur la stra- tégie et l’efficacité entourant la participation de la main-d’œuvre dans la formu- lation de politiques en radiodiffusion. -

Your Union: Unions and New Social Media During Election Campaigns Tim Fowler, Carleton University Doug Hagar, Brock University
1 ‘Liking’ Your Union: Unions and New Social Media During Election Campaigns Tim Fowler, Carleton University Doug Hagar, Brock University Presented at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association June 2012 Edmonton, Alberta This paper not to be cited until a final version is uploaded. 2 Introduction New Social Media (NSM), most commonly referring to Facebook and Twitter, has gained prominence as a political tool over the past half-decade. Barack Obama’s campaign for the White House used NSM as a major element (McGirt 2009; Stelter 2008), and many prominent politicians and political parties use NSM to interact with voters and constituents. The role of NSM in the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ cannot be understated: it was an influential tool to coordinate demonstrations and share information (Howard & Hussain 2011). NSM allows for instantaneous, consistent, and free communication to ‘followers’ that differs from the slow, costly, and unidirectional communication through traditional media and advertising strategies. The direct, unfiltered connection provided by NSM to constituents makes these tools particularly useful in political campaigns. An increased number of politicians, organizations, corporations, and citizens are using NSM for political purposes. This paper concerns itself with the use of NSM by organized labour in Canada, particularly during election campaigns. Popular wisdom in Canada holds that the New Democratic Party (NDP) is the party of organized labour. Indeed, the NDP formed as a merger of the Co-Operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF), the social democratic forerunner to the NDP, and the Canadian Labour Congress (CLC), Canada’s main labour federation. In practise, however, the relationship between organized labour and the NDP is rather complex. -

If you would like more information, please contact us at [email protected]. At its annual convention in 1885, the American Federation of Labor presented a resolution calling for an eight-hour work day. The "Eight Hour" movement quickly gathered momentum and trade and union groups were formed across the country. St. Louis was active in the movement and soon had four local central labor bodies: Central Labor Union; St. Louis Trades Assembly; Arbeiter-Verband (German workers) and District Assembly No. 4 of the Order of the Knights of Labor. Reflecting the national split between the Knights of Labor and the AFL, the St. Louis central labor bodies divided over the issue of union labels and trade union membership. The Central Labor Union, the St. Louis Trades Assembly, and the Arbeiter-Verband merged to form the St. Louis Trades and Labor Assembly. In 1897 the name was changed to the Central Trades and Labor Union of St. Louis and Vicinity. Made up of individual trade unions, the C.T.&L.U. supported the Street Car Men's Union in the railway strike of 1900, brewery strikes of the late 1880's, "Kelley's Army" of unemployed in 1894, the "Eight Hour" strike of the Typographical Union, the hotel and restaurant employees strike of 1920, and countless others. It also supported political and civic improvements: workman's compensation; women's suffrage; free public school textbooks; a free municipal bridge; establishment of more public high schools and New Deal social legislation.
