Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Les McDonald, a prominent figure in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, was deeply involved in the 1966 Lenkurt Electric strike, a pivotal event in Canadian labor history that resulted in the imprisonment of union leaders. This book explores his journey from a Communist activist to a key player in labor movements, detailing his efforts in Local 213 and the establishment of triathlon as an Olympic sport. Drawing on extensive archival research and personal interviews, it sheds light on the local union's leftist activism and the broader historical context from 1955 to 1985.
