When the provinces passed similar acts to the Industrial Disputes
and Investigation Act, did they change the terms in any way?
No.
The failings of the federal Act as far as the unions were concerned
were not changed, just carried over to provincial legislation. There
was still no protection of union organization or direction on how
collective agreements would work. Employers
could still use methods to try to stop union organization. Even
if a union did organize, there was no obligation for an employer
to recognize or bargain with the union.
