2019 Alberta Labour History Calendar

      The Great Labour Revolt of 1919
 
 

The Alberta Labour History Institute calendar for 2019 provides a concise and dramatic 
history of the Great Labour Revolt of 1919. It was the year when labour, disgusted by 
post-war profiteering and anti-worker practices by employers and governments alike
that continued such attacks from the pre-war and wartime periods, lay down tools and 
took to the streets en masse to demand a new economic system. 

The Winnipeg General Strike was a response to the oppression faced by workers and soon
workers in many places across the country, including Calgary and Edmonton and Alberta's
many coal towns had also initiated general strikes. 

The ALHI Calendar is more than a calendar. It is a readable and condensed but highly accurate 
history of trade unionism and workers' struggles in Alberta. It is also the top source of income
for ALHI as it goes about its work of doing oral histories of Alberta working people and 
documenting in various ways the struggles of working people to build unions and to fight
for political, social, and economic democracy for the people of Alberta.
 
We hope that you and your organization will support the work of ALHI by 
purchasing and displaying these calendars which have proven to be an invaluable source
of information about working people and their history.
 
I’ve attached an order form for your convenience and look forward to your response.
 
Thanks!
