In May 1919, Winnipeg ground to a halt as 30,000 workers walked off the job, demanding better wages, collective bargaining, and an end to poverty. What began as a strike by building and metal trades workers snowballed into a six-week confrontation that pitted returned soldiers, immigrants, and labour activists against the Canadian government and business elite. This episode follows the key figures—J.S. Woodsworth, Arthur 'Slim' Evans, Mayor Charles Gray—and the events that culminated in Bloody Saturday, when the Royal North-West Mounted Police charged a crowd of strikers and supporters, leaving two dead. It explores the role of the One Big Union, the arrest of strike leaders, and the legacy of the Winnipeg General Strike in shaping Canadian labour rights and political movements. #WinnipegGeneralStrike #1919 #LabourHistory #JSWoodsworth #ArthurSlimEvans #OneBigUnion #BloodySaturday #RCMP #CanadianHistory #LabourMovement #WorkingClassHistory #Strike #Manitoba #Winnipeg #FexingoHistory #History #Canada #20thCentury Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
