CA ON00159 P030 · Fonds · 1986-1996

The records from the Victims of Mining Environment (VOME) fonds include their constitution, correspondence, minutes, testimonies, photographs and newspaper clippings. The documents are directly related to the organization of VOME, and the campaigns of the group.

The documents inform researchers about all the campaigns and activities of VOME, and also about health-related work conditions on mine sites. This fonds highlights the determination of a group of women, mostly widowed, who fought on behalf of the widows and families of miners who died from industrial-related diseases and had not received any compensation. The fonds contains records that provide information about the leadership of Jeanne Larcher, who was instrumental in building this grassroots group. The records document the role of VOME in pressuring the Workers' Compensation Board to broaden the recognition of job-related diseases, and allowed for compensation to be awarded to surviving spouses and families. VOME's close working relationship with the Steelworkers Union and the Provincial NDP Party, and their contributions to the Ham Enquiry, the Minister of Labour, and the Workers' Compensation Board are also well documented.
