When wage controls and other legal restrictions on Canadian workers of the government's only answer to that country's deepening economic problems, the labor movement's response has to be fundamentally political.

I had never traveled in the United States and I was quite unprepared for the cultural gap. At the entrance to the large auditorium in the Statler-Hilton I discovered an honor guard waiting to march me up the center aisle to the platform, a ceremony I found altogether too military and pretentious for ordinary mortals and union leaders.

When it comes to turning the other cheek, I draw the line at bosses.
