MHS Transactions: Radical Politics in Winnipeg, 1899-1915 In addition, the party's inclusive nature allowed it to co-operate with the labourites, and this co-operation became an aspect of Winnipeg radicalism from the time the SDP was formed. To contest the provincial election in the spring of 1907, the labour party nominated Kempton McKim, president of the trades council, in the constituency of West Winnipeg, which contained a substantial number of labour voters centred on the CPR shops. The party's platform had as its essential object the collective ownership of the means of production, but, at a time when British Columbia socialists had already decided that they could be satisfied with nothing but the destruction of the present order, the manifesto also advocated a number of reforms of capitalism. www.mhs.mb.ca /docs/transactions/3/radicalpolitics.shtml

PC MANITOBA - Party History The 1999 election platform of the PC Party of Manitoba was based on a solid plan to cut taxes and increase spending for health and education to keep our kids at home and our province strong.

Manitoba proved to be no exception to this phenomenon and by 1920, it was obvious that a new era was approaching in provincial politics. www.pcmanitoba.com /PClegacy/legacy_history.asp

Articles - Progressive Conservative Party of Manitoba The party was a minor force in parliament, however, and was largely sidelined by the radical farmer and labour movements of the late 1910s.

The Conservative Party was not yet a legally recognized institution in the province, however, and began to lose its conherence again after Norquay's death in 1889. www.x-moto.net /articles/Progressive_Conservative_Party_of_Manitoba

Manitoba (A.G.) v. Metropolitan Stores Ltd., 1987 CanLII 79 (S.C.C.) At the conclusion of that hearing, it was suggested to counsel for the Manitoba Labour Board, that in order to expedite matters and obtain a decision on the validity of the legislation, it was open to the Manitoba Labour Board to direct a reference to this court. L-l0, there is provision allowing the Manitoba Labour Board to impose a first collective agreement upon the employer and the union, in circumstances where bargaining for a first contract has not been fruitful.

Program of the CPC Labour's struggle for safety, health, and job security in the work environment is indivisible with the struggle to protect and restore the whole environment, and for a fundamental shift in thinking and economic relations with the environment. It is of vital importance for labour and environmental organizations to recognize that the protection of the environment is in the long-term interests of sustainable employment, and for communities to unite against their common enemy, monopoly capitalism. Independent political action of the trade union, people's and democratic movements can be the means of winning masses of the people away from the capitalist parties, and setting them on the path of political independence and fundamental change. www.communist-party.ca /program/program_00.html
