9 After WWI! In many cases there was only one way for workers to make their demands heard

12 One Big Union! In 1917, a small group of radicals called Bolsheviks overthrew the government in a violent revolution! The Bolsheviks called for a revolution of the working people around the world

19 Winnipeg General Strike
20 Winnipeg General Strike! Winnipeg was split into two hostile sides
21 Winnipeg General Strike! Officials were determined to crush the strike! The Winnipeg Citizen accused the strikers of trying to bring about a revolution! Canadian government became alarmed and changed the criminal code.
22 Winnipeg General Strike! Any foreign born person who was suspected of trying to cause a revolution could be arrested and deported without a hearing or trial! Ottawa also sent troops with machine guns! As the strike went on into June, the strikers experienced real hardship (no strike pay)
23 Winnipeg General Strike! Then on June 17, Mounties raided the homes of union leaders and labour headquarters! 10 strike leaders were arrested! The general strike went on for 37 days, and then on June 21, a day known as Bloody Saturday, violence erupted
24 Winnipeg General Strike! A huge crowd had gathered to watch a parade protesting the arrest of the strike leaders! Parades had been banned and they mayor, fearing trouble, read the riot act and called in the Mounted Police

27 Winnipeg General Strike! 5 days later the Central Strike Committee ordered the workers back to their jobs! The strike was over
28 Results of the Strike! To many the strike looked like a failure! Leaders arrested! Families savings gone! Forced to sign yellow dog contracts stating they would not join a union! Some had no jobs to go back to
29 Results of the Strike! Positive! Citizens began to appreciate how important workers were to the community! Drew attention to the social and economic problems faced by many working people
