Debates And Proceedings Of The House Of Assembly PDF Download

Excerpt from Debates and Proceedings of the House of Assembly: During the Third Session of the Twenty-Third Parliament of the Province of Nova Scotia, 1866 Hon. Mr. Shannon replied that none of the measures passed last session contained any clause authorising such a combination as was referred to. Mr. Miller said that the powers given by the act of incorporation very often indirectly conferred the power of combination. One case with which he had been acquainted show ed the injurious operation of such measures: a number of ship-carpenters came up to the city to procure work, and applied for employ ment where a government vessel was under repair, but they were unable to obtain work, owing to the combination of the resident labor ers, and they were told that if they wished to be employed they must join the society which had been formed.
