English abstract

This talk focused on the Canadian Library Association's (CLA) historical role regarding advocacy for librarians and labour issues. It also discusses the budgetary cuts at Library and Archives Canada (Canada's National Library) and CLA's disappointing response to librarian activism at the 2012 CLA conference. There is a post-script on the politically-motivated cuts to the National Archival Development Program.
