Description: Seven films made between 1918 and 1924 with the involvement of the Ontario Motion Picture Bureau about working life and production processes of labour, presenting workplaces and work practices that have long since disappeared. In the wake of Canadian labour defeats following World War I, these films are artifacts of management's victory.
