OTTAWA—One of the main determinants of middle-class well-being in the post-war era was the strength of labour unions. Any economist will tell you that the golden years of middle-class economic advancement in North America in the three decades after the Second World War owed a lot to the union movement, and the sharing of corporate earnings with workers during that period's economic boom.
In recent years, the now-Conservative leader appears to have undergone a personal transformation. From an enemy of organized labour, he now depicts himself as something akin to the saviour of Canada’s workers. 'When I’m prime minister, my ... daily obsession will be about what is good for the working-class people of this country,” he declared recently. This kind of anti-elitist talk has become standard populist strategy over the last decade.
