Abstract:On 3 February 1989, leaders of the British Columbia labour movement, members of the environmental movement, and representatives from the Nuu-chah-nulth-aht Tribal Council (ntc) gathered to meet at Tin Wis, the ntc meeting space, in Tofino, BC, to discuss an alliance around environmental issues on the West Coast of Vancouver Island. This article takes this meeting, and subsequent alliance, as a way to explore the impact, potential, and contested meanings of alliances forged among workers, environmentalists, and First Nations in British Columbia in the late 20th century and beyond. In this way, the article examines from a historical perspective what sociologists have framed as the period of new social movements.Résumé:Le 3 février 1989, des dirigeants du mouvement syndical de la Colombie-Britannique, des membres du mouvement écologiste et des représentants du Nuu-chah-nulth-aht Tribal Council (ntc) se sont réunis pour se rencontrer à Tin Wis, l'espace de réunion du ntc, à Tofino, pour discuter d'une alliance autour des questions environnementales sur la côte ouest de l'Île de Vancouver. Cet article prend cette rencontre, et l'alliance subséquente, comme un moyen d'explorer l'impact, le potentiel et les significations contestées des alliances forgées entre les travailleurs, les écologistes et les Premières Nations en Colombie-Britannique à la fin du 20e siècle et au-delà. De cette manière, l'article examine d'un point de vue historique ce que les sociologues ont défini comme la période de nouveaux mouvements sociaux.

Abstract:This study examines worker voice in the development and implementation of safety plans or protocols for covid-19 prevention among hospital workers, long-term care workers, and education workers in the Canadian province of Ontario. Although Ontario occupational health and safety law and official public health policy appear to recognize the need for active consultation with workers and labour unions, there were limited – and in some cases no – efforts by employers to meaningfully involve workers, worker representatives (reps), or union officials in assessing covid-19 risks and planning protection and prevention measures. The political and legal efforts of workers and unions to assert their right to participate and the outcomes of those efforts are also documented through archival evidence and interviews with worker reps and union officials. The article concludes with an assessment of weaknesses in the government promotion and protection of worker health and safety rights and calls for greater labour attention to the critical importance of worker health and safety representation.Résumé:Cette étude examine la voix des travailleurs dans l'élaboration et la mise en œuvre de plans ou de protocoles de sécurité pour la prévention du covid-19 chez les travailleurs hospitaliers, les travailleurs de soins de longue durée et les travailleurs de l'éducation dans la province canadienne de l'Ontario. Bien que la loi ontarienne sur la santé et la sécurité au travail et la politique officielle de la santé publique semblent reconnaître la nécessité d'une consultation active avec les travailleurs et les syndicats, il y a eu des efforts limités – et dans certains cas aucuns efforts – deployés par les employeurs pour impliquer de manière significative les travailleurs, les représentants des travailleurs (délégués), ou des responsables syndicaux pour évaluer les risques liés au covid-19 et planifier les mesures de protection et de prévention. Les efforts politiques et juridiques des travailleurs et des syndicats pour affirmer leur droit de participer et les résultats de ces efforts sont également documentés par des preuves d'archives et des entretiens avec des délégués et des responsables syndicaux. L'article se termine par une évaluation des faiblesses de la promotion et de la protection par le gouvernement des droits des travailleurs en matière de santé et de sécurité et appelle à une plus grande attention des travailleurs à l'importance cruciale de la représentation en matière de santé et de sécurité des travailleurs.
