This sub-series documents the 1978 yearlong strike of over 200 workers at the Puretex Knitting Company, a garment factory in Toronto, Ontario. The strike was a result of the installation of surveillance cameras in the factory, including a camera at the entrance of a women's washroom. Most of the workers were immigrant women from southern and eastern Europe. The Canadian Textile and Chemical Union (CTCU) declared that the cameras infringed on the workers' privacy and violated their human rights. Although a small sub-series, the materials document the negotiations carried out by the CTCU, the locations of the surveillance cameras, and the strike itself.

This sub-series documents the Confederation of Canadian Unions (CCU) / Confédération des syndicats canadiens (CSC), a federation of independent Canadian labour unions founded in 1969 by Madeleine Parent and Kent Rowley.
