Extract

To celebrate the fiftieth issue of Labour/Le Travail, scholars, unionists, and political activists from across Canada and from the United States, Australia, Ireland, and Brazil gathered in Peterborough, Ontario, from May 31 to June 2, 2002. Founded by the Canadian Committee on Labour History in 1976, Labour/Le Travail has been a central pole for the development of Canadian labor history and one of the world's leading labor history journals. Its jubilee issue provided a welcome occasion for considering the state of Canadian labor history, the challenges of putting out labor history journals, and political problems confronting workers and organized labor. Many of those present came from the generation that founded Labour/Le Travail, including Greg Kealey, Bryan Palmer, Joan Sangster, and other early editors, contributors and board members of the journal.
