Milton Kahn once said he "was almost born on a cutting table" and this was not far from the truth. His association with the fashion industry dated back to the days of his infancy. His father was a tailor and an organizer of the Cloakmakers Union in Toronto, and was among those who were instrumental in raising the union from a fledgling organization into a strong advocate of workers’ rights. Those were difficult years in the garment trade. There was a need for a strong union and Milton was young enough to have been influenced by the struggles of his father for recognition of employees' rights…. and he was old enough to envisage a future for the industry in which employer and employee might develop a relationship in which there would be room for mutual confidence and respect.
