    Scope and content

    The collection consists of copies of interviews, programs, commentaries and news reports aired on Sudbury radio and television stations, including CKSO, CHNO and CBC, from 1958-66. All are related to trade unions in Ontario, but most of the events and activities described took place in the Sudbury region. Particular reference is made to the struggle between the United Steelworkers of America (USWA), Local 6500, and the International Union of Mine, Mill, and Smelter Workers (IUMMSW), Local 598, to represent the workers in the mining industry. There are reports on the 1958 Mine Mill strike, the USWA raids in Port Colborne and Sudbury, bargaining issues, and trade unions and communism. Prominent union leaders and activists express their opinions on a variety of issues, including David Lewis, Terry Mancini, Ken Smith, Mike Solski, Don Gillis, Nels Thibault, and Larry Sefton. Some of the talks and speeches are by civic leaders such as Mayor John Fabbro as well as politicians from the federal and provincial ridings for the region. A list and description of the tapes provided by the National Archives is also included in the fonds.
