Similarities with America[edit]
Labour relations in Canada and America are exceptionally similar, With a 1959 survey of 15 countries describing them as a single system. Until the 1970s, the majority of union members and union organizations had a place with American-based specialty, modern and industrial associations. In Canada, more than 4000 subsidiaries and branch plants of American corporations exist. In the 1960s, due to institutional and political factors that were shared with the US, there was an unusually high amount of strikes, as well, the incidence of violence and illegal activities that came out of work and labour disputes has been much higher in the Canada and US than in other industrialized countries. Characteristics that would lead to higher aggressive strikes would be the result of mass unionization and the hostility that arose from the widespread employer opposition to unions, organizational and institutional union rivalries, and the absence of a large labour party.
