the province-wide campaign against insurance rate increases introduced by the new Social Credit government in 1976
the opposition to federal wage controls that culminated in a one-day national work stoppage in 1976
the historic Solidarity movement in 1983

The collection is also a rich source of images from political and other social movements, including:
rallies and campaigns for human rights
internationally recognized Vancouver walks for peace during the mid-1980s
