International Trade Unionist and Party Leader
[edit]McDonald was president of the Canada's central trade union federation, the Canadian Labour Congress as well as president of the International Confederation of Trade Unions. Therefore he is a notable figure and his importance and significance is asserted in the body of the article. More information about him is needed but this is a start.

- Donald MacDonald was know world-wide as a Trade Unionist. In Canada, he was also know as the Nova Scotia leader of that province's Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) political party. He is an important figure in the creation of both the Canadian Labour Congress in 1956, and the New Democratic Party in 1961. This merits him to be of mid-level importance, on pare with a premier of a province, or federal cabinent minister (and even some Canadian prime ministers).Abebenjoe 20:45, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Start Class I believe this article to be a start class on the Wiki quality scale, because it does have an infobox, and lists references. It needs more information about his political, and especially, his work in the labour movement. Getting a public domain picture would also help.Abebenjoe 20:30, 13 February 2007 (UTC) |
