Description

The Trades and Labor Congress of Canada (TLC) was a national federation of trade unions that existed from 1883 to 1956, when it merged with the Canadian Congress of Labour to form the Canadian Labour Congress.
The collection consists largely of correspondence documenting the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada's relations with its affiliated municipal trades and labour councils. Also included are a few files on affiliated provincial federations, containing reports, constitutions, correspondence, and other material. The years 1940-1958 are covered.
De 1883 à 1956, le Congrès des métiers et du travail du Canada (CMTC) constituait une centrale syndicale des travailleurs du Canada. En 1956, il fusionna avec le Congrès canadien du travail pour devenir le Congrès du travail du Canada.
La collection est surtout composée d'une correspondance qui se rapporte aux relations du Congrès des métiers et du travail du Canada avec ses conseils locaux des métiers et du travail affiliés. On y trouve aussi quelques dossiers sur des fédérations provinciales affiliées, y compris des rapports, des constitutions, de la correspondance et d'autres documents. La période couverte s'étale de 1940 à 1958.

Part 3 consists of printed reports from a database listing of files in containers 536 to 689, related microfilm copies, and microfilm reels M-9601 to M-9608; the database itself is temporarily available only in the Economic and Governance Archives Section, Canadian Archives Branch. Note that folders in containers 581 to 689 are only identified by the container and folder numbers; while a file list is included in each of these containers, researchers should nevertheless make note of the appropriate container and folder numbers while consulting Part 3 of the finding aid.
