Solidarity Crisis

Solidarity Crisis

The Solidarity Crisis refers to a protest movement in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1983 that emerged in response to the Social Credit (Socred) government's economic policy of "restraint." A mass coalition, led by Art Kube was formed, comprising of community organizations and trade unions, which many expected would culminate in a general strike.
