A general strike was held in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
The Boston police strike of 1919 resulted in the dismissal of most striking officers and the hiring of new personnel to replace them. The strike led to increased public unrest and a spike in crime, prompting the National Guard to be deployed to restore order. Ultimately, the event highlighted issues surrounding labor rights and police conditions, but it also reinforced public support for law enforcement. The strike ended with a significant shift in the composition of the police force in Boston.
