Description
by Tim Armstrong (Author)
In the realm of labour rights and public service, there are rare individuals who stand out as beacons of justice and positive change. Tim Armstrong is one such exceptional figure...
-Radiation Safety Institute of Canada
From his quiet beginnings playing road hockey in Toronto to the halls of power in Ontario government and the banks and boardrooms of the Asia-Pacific region, he has lived an extraordinary life. In Law, Labour, and a Canadian Life in Public Service, he chronicles his upbringing in Toronto in the 1940s and '50s, his summers caddying across Canada, and his formative years at UTS, Victoria College, and Osgoode Hall Law School.
Offering a who's who of Canadian politics, he describes his legal practice and tenure as Deputy Minister of Labour during Ontario's turbulent '70s and '80s, his subsequent appointment as Ontario's Agent General to the Asia-Pacific region, and his later period as Deputy Minister of Industry, Trade, and Technology. The book finishes with commentaries on selections of his published pieces from the Globe and Mail, the Toronto Star, and the Hamilton Spectator on issues that continue to impact Ontario and Canada today.
Filled with case studies, personal anecdotes, and fascinating details of closed-door negotiations, this book sheds light on an important part of Ontario /Canadian history and its promise for the future.
