Remember This? Ottawa's first Labour Day (CityNews Ottawa)

Ottawa celebrated its first official Labour Day on Monday, Sept. 1, 1890, a day that Mayor Erratt declared a municipal holiday.

In the midst of a mob of several hundred men, a greased pig was released. The first Labour Day was considered to be a great success. The finale of the sporting events was the greasy pig contest. While the Mayor had declared the day to be a holiday, not all firms were closed for the full day. The Ottawa Journal indicated that this was not only a first for Ottawa, but “the first holiday of this kind in this country.” The capital’s trade unions were enthusiastic participants. Union members participating in the big parade were encourage to get to the union offices early in preparation for the walk to Cartier Square where the parade marshals would assign them their position in the procession, scheduled to depart at 8:15 am sharp. Here is Canada, organized labour with links to US unions, such as the Knights of Labor, began to lobby for similar workers’ celebrations and the creation of a workers’ holiday. As well, the men printed handbills, which they distributed to the crowds of well-wishers watching the parade, using a small Gordon job press. Two American men are believed to have first conceived the idea of a statutory holiday in honour of the “labouring classes”—Peter McGuire, general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and co-founder of the American Federation of Labor, and Matthew Maguire, secretary of the Central Labour Union of New York. Some historians contend that Labour Day celebrations had their origins in the parades and demonstrations held in support of a nine-hour work-week during the early 1870s, like the ones organized in Hamilton and Toronto in 1872. It is typically a day for family leisure activities—a last dip in the lake before heading home, a barbecue in the backyard or in a park, or a trip to the cinema to watch the latest Hollywood blockbuster. Its purpose was to celebrate the achievements of workers, especially those of organized labour.
