Banks appeared before the Norris Commission, which was set up to investigate his strongarm tactics and links to beatings of opposition unions, and non signed shipping companies. In particular was the ULS and the Maritime Union run by his former lieutenant Michael Sheehan, who had testified before the Norris Commission against Banks, and led the push to loosen the SIU grip on the Great Lakes. Maury Chaykin played the role of Banks in dramatic reenactments. AwardsWinner of five awards, including Gemini Awards for best screenplay and best direction. External links{{Portal|Organized labour}}
