"Waterfront Blues is the story of the dramatic events surrounding the labour battles at the Port of Montreal in the 1960s and 1970s. During that time, the prospect - and reality - of technological change poisoned labour relations, provoking a series of bitter strikes as well as repeated exercises in government intervention. It was not until 1978 that management and labour were able to negotiate a collective agreement without a work stoppage or government action." "In this new study, Alexander Pathy probes deeply into the causes of this labour unrest and charts the efforts made by the parties concerned - management, labour, and government - to resolve the crisis. It draws upon the author's own experiences as a management representative and key figure at the Port of Montreal, as well as extensive research into the records generated by all the parties involved."--BOOK JACKET.
