Abstract

Beyond the conflict bitter at the end for workers, what is the health of the Quebec labour movement? The purpose of this article is to highlight the major trends sweeping the world of work and employment, and to identify their effects on the union actor. Following this, we adopt a prescriptive approach, primarily based on the writings of Levesque and Murray (2003) to demonstrate that unions are not entirely unprepared for this new situation.
