Royal York Strike


The first use of Perelman’s argument was repetition. The same signs are seen everywhere and the chants that are used are repeated over and over again to get the point across. This could also be made as a case for loci quantity, the more amount of signs and chanting that is done, the better chance they have to get their point across. There is also an appeal to force/fear, they are threatening to stop working or continuing going on strike if they don’t get what they want.
