was mapped out recently at

This campaign for Human
Rights will culminate in a na-
tional conference to beheld in the
spring of 1957 with participation
of outstanding speakers and con-
sultants from the United States
and Canada. The whole question
of religious and racial discrimina-
tion in Canada, the problems of
the newcomer, the status of the
native Indian population, the
problems of the older worker, im-
migrants, civil liberties, and re-
lated subjects will be discussed at
this national conference, which is
expected to attract participants
from every province in Canada,
national organizations, govern-
mental departments, and univers-
ities.

Fair Employment Laws

The meeting also has received
reports from local labor commit-
tees on human rights in the ma-
jor industrial cities on the opera-
tions of the federal and provin-
cial Fair Employment Laws. It
has become quite evident on the
basis of these reports that these
protective laws have, either dir-

Rights

Campaign Set

An intensified campaign for human rights in Canada

the first meeting of the Na-

tional Committee for Human Rights of the Canadian La-
bour Congress, Held at Congress Headquarters in Ottawa.

ectly or indirectly, changed the
pattern of employment practices
in a number of industries, con-
tributing to, lessening, or entirely
eliminating discriminatory em-
ployment practices on account of
race or religion. The ‘effects of
these laws, however, have not
been felt uniformly throughout
Canada. In order for these laws
to become truly effective on a na-
tional scale, the Committee for
Human Rights reiterated previ-
ous requests of the Canadian La-
bor Congress to the Federal De-
partment of Labour for an intens-
ified educational program for
Fair Practices and for the ap-
pointment of an advisory com-
mittee to assist the Department
in planning this program.

Initiative Taken

The committee also urged the
federal government to take the
initiative in calling a meeting of
representatives of provincial de-
partments of labor, presently ad-
ministering fair employment
practice laws, for the purpose of

co-ordinating the educational ac-
tivities and the administration of
these laws.

There are still four provinces

in Canada — Quebec, Newfound-
land, Alberta and\ Prince Edward
Island—which have not adopted
fair employment practice laws.
The committee called on the pro-
vincial federations of labor and
community organizations gener-
ally to intensify their efforts for
the enactment of such laws in
those provinces so that every
worker in Canada, regardless of
his place of residence, will enjoy
the protective provisions of these
laws.
, The Committee for Human
Rights was recently appointed by
the Executive Council of the Ca-
nadian Labor Congress on the in-
structions of its founding conven-
tion. Mr. Frank Hall, Interna-
tional vice - president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Clerks,
was appointed chairman of the
committee and presided at a re-
cent meeting.
