In years past when there were no great .problems and collective agreements were signed without lock-outs or strikes our Premier Bennett would say that he and his government were responsible for the gentle, friendly atmos- phere, It seems to me that if one takes credit for the sunshine then one must also take the blame for the rain and the storms. ; The situation in labour-manage- ment relations in British Colum- bia, and im all of Canada for that matter, is‘ the direct result of the stupid, blind, and ignorant pol- icies of the governments in Victoria and Ottawa. I say stupid because our laws governing labour - management negotiations are the same as they were 25 years ago. Times haye changed. Procedures have chang: ed. Attitudes have changed, Econ- omics have changed. But there has been no attempt to ‘keep up with the times’. The result is chaos, confitsion, and trouble. I say the government in Victoria and Ottawa are blind because they have been warned time and time again that the Labour Relations Acts are archale and based on 1930 concepts. In some rare in- Stances’ these old-line governments] : " have even admitted ‘the need ‘for . change but have failed to act, I say that government policy in the labour-management field is based on ignorance because these political parties think in terms of negotiations as being a sort of war between two groups, The conse- quences are the same as in any war; innocent people get hurt: We in the New Democratic Party, and I -in particular, have long advocated change In the law so that the social responsibility of unions and management can be enhanced and go that negotiations are in matter for the community as a Whole and so that all society benefits, This can be done by some |{ simple changes to our labour lawa| — changes we have been suggest- ing for years.
