English: Newsreel footage shot at the time of the Winnipeg General Strike, which took place from 15 May to 25 June 1919. The intertitle describes this as "[scenes] of a big general strike which for six weeks threatened to paralyze the labor situation in many Canadian cities". It begins with scenes of a demonstrators carrying placards, one reading "Britons Never Shall Be Slaves" and another "We Stand By Our Elected Government". The demonstrators are believed to be anti-strike war veterans opposed to the implied threat of communism. Men march past the camera as police watch. The next intertitle reads: "Incidents such as these were quite frequent in attempts of the police to maintain order". This refers to a sequence in which police march some individuals along a crowded street. Mayor Charles Gray of Winnipeg delivers a speech in an attempt to cool passions as strikers listen. The intertitle reads: "Mayor Gray of Winnipeg addresses the strikers in his efforts to affect a reconciliation."
