Hopkins v. Price-Waterhouse is a very detailed case, that features many aspects of the patriarchy, and lingering ways of thinking about gender that are hopefully being phased out of modern society.

Canada and the United States have always shared a familial relationship both politically and economically. The transfer of capital, labour and market between these two has been entrenched and institutionalized on many levels throughout their history. Despite such positive relations, one particular sector of the economy has undergone intense scrutiny and friction, which is that of the softwood lumber trade. Since the 1980’s this has been a hotly-contested and debated issue between the two economies, with both sides sharing perspectives of indifference constantly. Both nations share a large geographical land area that allows them to export lumber en masse globally, but particular arguments have revolved around the practices of both opposing sides in their trade with one another. This paper’s aim is to produce an analysis on the historical origin, evolution, and current reality of the lumber dispute today.

In turn, the narrator fails to recognize the humanity of his workers and reduces them to workers in his business. When describing his workers, he also focuses on their age, a factor that would determine how hard they work or how long they will work for him. His focus when describing his third employee, Ginger Nut, is he “was a lad of some twelve years old [and worked] at the rate of one dollar a week.” (14) This concentration on age and financial rate displays his non-existent desire to know his employees on a personal scale, only for their benefit to the company and how much money they cost him. The narrator’s desire for a successful business is evident in his reaction to Bartleby’s refusal to copy papers.

Willy, a 60 year old man who views himself as the greatest salesman of all time, sees himself as a hero and the man who provides for his family at all times. He goes on long roadtrips trying to bring in money for the household so they can achieve “The American Dream”, risking his mental health. As a result, others viewed him as a successful, and ambitious man that will risk any and everything to get to the top. Therefore, Willy tries to bring in as much money as be can, and he even tries to persuade his boss to give him better work, instead of traveling. Willy states, “I averaged a hundred and seventy dollars a week in the year of 1928!.” In other words, Willy is insisting a salary raise, and a non-traveling schedule so he continue providing for his family.
