Description:

Newsreel story about a demonstration on Parliament Hill in Ottawa by 4,000 automobile workers to protest the government's move to reduce a tariff protecting the Canadian automobile manufacturing industry. The protesters, mostly Oshawa-area auto workers and their families, fear that lowering the tariff will result in an increase in imports of less expensive American-made cars. The footage shows: a huge crowd on Parliament Hill with banners and posters; a banner on behalf of Durant auto workers; Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King speaking to the crowd from the steps of the Centre Block; and people walking past the camera. <59s>

Language:

Silent with English intertitles
