The British Columbia Federation of Labour (BCFED), often shortened to the BC Federation of Labour, is a central organization for organized labour in British Columbia, Canada. It was founded in 1910[1] and has 500,000 members.[2]

History

The BCFED was formed in 1910.

In 1917, the BCFED adopted a resolution opposing Canada's recently passed Military Service Act, which mandated conscription for military age men.[3]

The BCFED published a newspaper, The B.C. Federationist. The newspaper had a circulation of 40,000 workers throughout Western Canada and has been characterized as a revolutionary trade unionist publication. The paper was used to distribute socialist messaging, including Left-wing Communism; an Infantile Disorder by V.I. Lenin.[3]
