This brochure provides an introduction to the history of the 1919 Winnipeg General Strike. It is written to inspire readers to imagine the exciting, tense, and frightening events that gripped Winnipeg in the spring of 1919. The tour is an invitation to explore Winnipeg's neighbourhoods and to consider the gender, racial, and ethnic diversity that characterized the city at the end of the First World War. It is an opportunity to consider the deep divisions in social class that contributed so fundamentally to the events of 1919. The tour is intended as a thematic introduction to the strike rather than a traditional historical tour focused on buildings. In part, this is because few buildings specific to workers in 1919 still stand today. Victoria Park and the James Street Labor Temple, both crucial to any telling of the story, no longer exist. The tour begins in the working-class neighbourhood of Point Douglas, north of Portage Avenue. Start by exploring Working-Class Winnipeg (red banner). Then, cross Portage Avenue and travel south across the Maryland Bridge (Assiniboine River) to Crescentwood: Home of the Citizens' Committee (blue banner). In 1919, working class families and elites were as socially isolated from one another in their neighbourhoods as were workers and employers in the city's shops and factories. Finally, travel to Central Winnipeg: Scene of the Conflict (green banner). It was here, in the contested terrain of downtown Winnipeg, that the elites and working classes of the city encountered one another. Both the Strike Committee and the Citizens' Committee were headquartered here, and these downtown streets witnessed daily parades, demonstrations and meetings. The sites listed here are but an introduction to the history of 1919. In each district one will find many more houses, halls, shops, churches, parks and other locations waiting to be investigated. It is hoped that this tour will provide a starting point for many readers to examine the city in a way they have not done before.
