Final Offer is a Canadian film documenting the 1984 contract negotiations between the United Auto Workers Union (UAW) and General Motors.[1] Ultimately, it provided a historical record of the birth of the Canadian Auto Workers Union (CAW) as Bob White, the head of the Canadian sector of the UAW, led his membership out of the international union and created the CAW.
The movie depicts life in an era of massive industrial change in North America. The audience sees the emergence of automation and how it begins to affect the lives of the working class. Other themes depicted are labour relations, life on the picket line, and corporate restructuring.
A National Film Board of Canada production, Final Offer is directed by Sturla Gunnarsson and Robert Collison, written by Collison, and produced by Collison, Gunnarsson and John Spotton.[2]
The movie features Henry Ramer as the narrator, Buzz Hargrove, Roger Smith, chairman of General Motors, and founding CAW president Bob White.
