Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - May 5, 1973, Winnipeg, Manitoba Winnipeg Cress. Saturday May 5, 1973 19 the labor scene . Law change unions 6lie Low by Dudley Vagnus the British Columbia federa Tion of labor Csc asked ils provincial government april 18 to listen to urgent requests for new legislation to replace the present hated restrictive legislative shackles of the old Bennett regime. Hut the new government in t moving quickly at All. It appears thai the new presumably pro labor government of new Democrat Premier Dave Barrell in replacing the old line social credit party is going out of its Way to Demon going to be pushed around by the Trade unions. Good move. It la work for a while. The Manitoba Public knows that the general run of left inclined working class peo ple of the province whether they approve of new Democrat p r c in i e r cd Schreyer s occasional Brushoff of labor s re quests or Haven t any place else to Vole at election time but Wilh new democrats they Don t any longer fall for that stuff though about unions being against de Schreyer and so on because by now they Strate to the Public that in in t i know it is a game of politics.

Rancho realty Ltd. As a Mailer of example de Pilc the feeling thai if there Verc to be a number of strikes oing during an election say in Une that endangered the econ imy it would Hurt the nip s Hanics actually i believe to he contrary it would help the Schreyer government get Back n. Especially if defying unions he government decided to me Liaty or Settle the strikes. This would be because the picture would be one of our Micro Schreyer the honest social Premier showing those Larn unions he was t going to c dictated to by them even if hey were showing him How iad things were for unions a Der a so called labor government. Liberal voters who look on or. Schreyer As a politically Eft Wing Liberal would flock to Lis Side. Now in ., where the nip government is fairly new to the game one would expect the m Emier automatically to Shelve Abor s demands so As to look fairly Independent of labor. Phis Independence is largely Low Premier Barrell got into Jower at the polls. And by Golly in s determined to prove his in Lepe Denee to All and sundry As clearly and firmly As Possi ble. His government has heard the federation Brief and has in formed the federation that i can expect nothing to be done about revising labor legislation until the fall. The House there is not in session at the moment you would have expected immediate of forms to relieve labor of its Burden of repressive legislation. But the pre Mier is saying no Way you Union chaps am Nirry just for you. I going to this is a Vole Catcher among Eft Wing but not pro Union Liber Al types to be sure but it won t be Long before they Wake up to the fact that or. Barrett is privately listening very carefully to the unions because though things Are different in To the situation in Manitoba an old line party revival is not entirely out of the near future political scene. And then if change came or. Barrett would have to Lurn to labor his Only True Friend which it is now but labor understandingly is lying Low knowing full Well that or. Bar rett has to play his role the right Way to keep progressing with the left. Of course labor must make noises of protest. Just noises. Here Ake some of the highlights of the federation s re quests which Aren t out of the Way at All and really there s no excuse other than the to 1 do away with the old Trio Hie labor relations act the mediation services act and the Trade Union act. 2 eliminate exclusions from the right to bargain collectively As Trade Union members such As farm workers Fisher men and others. 3 provide legislation Lopre vent an employer from in Limi Ealing employees when a drive o form a Union is in Progress and introduce adequate deter rents such As heavier fines. 4 repeal the Section in Law Liat prohibits unionists from making contributions to Politi Cal parties through their Union dues. 5 compel employers to bar gain in Good Faith As the Law requires of them and increase the effectiveness of mediation officers. 0 guarantee unions the right peacefully where they want to and eliminate the legislation that forbids picketing and Boycotts at Points other than where the strike is taking place. Permit workers to re Spect picket lines without pen Alty and to refuse to handle hot goods. Do away with the practice of hiring strike Breakers. 7 where Teclu Olgica change is necessary a com Pany must wait until a Neu contract is negotiated or the Law should allow a Union involved to negotiate again with the company if change comic during the life of an agreement. 8 overhaul the labor Board and make it a full time opera t i b n Wilh management am Union representatives a members who arc All truly representative of their groups. Away with the practice of hav ing department of labor officials responsible for adminis Talion of legislation sitting a members of the Board adj Cal ing under the labor act. I would suggest Tia Unions Are going to have a Tough time getting what the want let alone As soon As the want just so that or.
