Workers' voices at the BC-Federal Forestry Summit youtu.be/A93YukqHxJE?... #canlab #cdnpoli #ProtectCanadianJobs

50,000 jobs in BC. 200,000 across Canada. Forestry isn't just about trees — it's about people and place. Families and communities who depend on this work. Everyone in this fight must understand that. This is a fight for livelihoods. #ForestryBC #bcpoli #cdnpoli

Thank you everyone for attending @unifor.org BC Regional Council. My full report to the BC Council is available here. Let’s get to work! Solidarity! #canlab #bcpoli

Thanks to the delegates from across B.C. who participated in this weekend's regional council. You can review all the action in the online albums: Day 1: www.facebook.com/media/set/?s... Day 2: www.facebook.com/media/set/?s... Day 3: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

It was a busy Day 2 of the B.C. Regional council, with transit, mental health, organizing, health & safety, media, and mobilizing for change all on the agenda. Check out the photo album here: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

Thanks to B.C. Labour Minister Jennifer Whiteside for making the trip to Harrison this weekend to share an update on the govt's efforts to protect B.C. jobs from the tariff attacks. But the crisis is getting worse and Unifor will continue to work with the Eby govt to do more.

I'm in Harrison this week with 200+ Unifor activists for the B.C. Regional Council to share experiences and strategize about how we can defend every job, organize every shop, and raise every standard.

Unifor Western Regional Director @gavinmcgarrigle.bsky.social gave Media Council delegates updates on strikes/victories, Unifor's role in political change across Canada, & celebrated the rise of worker-owned news outlets—"when journalists and communities take their future into their own hands."

Unifor members negotiating their first collective agreement with Amazon met with B.C. Premier David Eby and Minister of Labour Jennifer Whiteside at the Unifor offices for a meet and greet on October 16. Check out the photos: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

B.C. Premier David Eby and labour minister Jennifer Whiteside met with courageous workers from the Amazon YVR2 facility at the Unifor offices in New Westminster today.

Protect Canadian Jobs - Forestry Press Conference with Premier David Eby youtu.be/wHMZQa-La54?... #cdnpoli #bcpoli #canlab

Yesterday I was proud to join Unifor members in the forestry industry and Premier Eby to amplify the call for the federal government to stand up for forestry jobs in the face of unfair tariffs. Watch a recording of the event: www.youtube.com/live/-6Yhc7O...

At a media conference with Premier David Eby about protecting the forestry industry during trade talks, Western Region Director Gavin insisted “We can’t afford to pit one kind of worker against another. It has to be Forestry AND auto. Canola AND energy. Aerospace AND seafood producers.”

We had valuable discussions this week in Calgary about strengthening unions at the local level and building the fightback against Danielle Smith's backwards vision for public education: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

It was a pleasure to meet with progressive activists this weekend at the Sask NDP convention. I heard many energetic discussions about building the movement that will replace the tired, out-of-touch Scott Moe govt

Unifor stands with Alberta teachers unifor.org/news/all-news/… Premier Smith has proven that she does not believe in a thriving public education system. She’s opposed to a universal system just like health care and wants families to buy their way into a for-profit system#abpolili

My daughter’s newest single ‘Siren’ is now out - this might be my favourite, one of them anyway! Have a listen, please download and share and spread the word about this amazing talent! youtu.be/8wk_4izxiwQ?... #bcmusic

Last week Unifor met with new members at the Amazon fulfilment centre YVR2 in Delta B.C. It was an important opportunity to discuss the bargaining process and the issues that matter to workers at Amazon. www.unifor.org/news/all-new...

There is urgency needed to respond to the protectionist approach from the U.S. govt. The expanded BC Timber Sales vision will support people on front line, in communities throughout the province, supporting local workers. news.gov.bc.ca/releases/202...

This week Unifor kicked off a series of on-site meetings with the new members at Amazon to review the collective bargaining process and discuss the issues that matter to workers at the fulfilment centre in Delta B.C.

Unifor Local 3000 members at the Sheraton Guildford have been on strike since July 5 fighting for fairness against a greedy employer who doesn't respect hospitality workers. Watch the coverage of Friday's rally, where fellow Unifor members showed their support: www.unifor.org/news/all-new...

During Friday's rally for striking Local 3000 members at the Sheraton Guildford, we delivered a clear message to the greedy owners at Pacific Reach: get back to the bargaining table and treat hospitality workers with respect! View the full album: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

Join me at the Sheraton Guildford on Friday to stand in solidarity with Local 3000 members on strike and send a message to the owners that these workers have earned a fair contract. #bclab

It was a wonderful Labour Day in Vancouver with Unifor members and their families at the PNE. Thanks again to all of the volunteers that helped make it successful.

Across Western Canada, Unifor members are standing in solidarity with Air Canada workers who deserve a fair NEGOTIATED contract.

Anyone who is in town for Saturday, August 23, join me for my daughter’s live show in Vancouver! It will be a great night!

I've probably read hundreds of LRB rulings, and this is one of the spiciest I've ever seen. Amazon's tactics were beyond the pale and the LRB saw right through this flimsy appeal:

Thanks again to all the volunteers who helped make Sunday's march so fun and meaningful. View the Facebook album of Unifor's participation in Vancouver's Pride parade: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

Happy Pride from the Vancouver parade!

Wages, improvements to benefits, and pension adjustments are the highlights of a new collective agreement ratified by Unifor Local 2301 members during voting on July 25–29. www.unifor.org/news/all-new...

This morning I spoke with CBC's Stephen Quinn about Unifor's union drive at Amazon and the historic certification of workers at the facility in Delta. www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Thanks to all the Unifor members and volunteers who made this week's Stampede BBQ such a success! Check out the full album: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

Calling all Amazon workers and all warehouse workers - Find out how you can organize your workplace into #Unifor. We’re behind you all in the fight for better workplaces that you deserve. Join today! #canlab

We now have a unionized Amazon facility in B.C. A team of committed Unifor organizers and Amazon workers spent nearly a year doing outreach and fighting company misinformation. From Amazon to Walmart, workers are better off with a union. www.unifor.org/news/all-new...

I visited our Unifor Local 3000 members on strike at the Sheraton Guildford today. They told me stories about how hard it is to make ends meet, of pain from the job, and their demand to be treated with respect. Solidarity in their fight for a fair contract! #canlab

Thanks to @Randene4PRSC and staff for meeting with @UniforTheUnion and #UFAWU to discuss improvements for fisheries workers in British Columbia. Looking forward to further discussions on ways to ensure BC caught fish is processed in BC plants by BC workers. #canlab

#Unifor members and families can register to join us at the @unifor.org Stampede BBQ on July 10 in Calgary! Good food, solidarity and live music! Looking forward to it! unifor.org/news/events/... #canlab

Last night, progressive candidates were elected in 2/3 by-elections in Alta. Momentum is building, and I want to thank our dedicated team who spent many hours volunteering and talking to their fellow members about a better Alberta for workers.

Today is election day in Alberta for three by-elections. The Unifor team has worked hard in a member-to-member campaign focused on electing candidates that will stand up for workers, which means standing up to Danielle Smith's reckless and divisive agenda.

Less than a week to go in some pivotal by-elections in Alberta. The UCP govt is simply not getting the job done. Danielle Smith is not fixing anything. Workers are mobilizing the fightback, starting at the ballot box on June 23.

I visited the DHL picket lines in Richmond B.C. yesterday to show my support for Unifor members on strike. They are taking a bold stand against a very powerful global corporation to demand fairness and respect on the job.

Unifor activists are getting an early start in the Alberta by-elections. There's no time to waste to build the fight-back against separatist Danielle Smith.

“Our members are frustrated,” said @gavinmcgarrigle.bsky.social in the coverage of @transdevna.bsky.social rally. “There’s been no movement to resolve the key remaining issue, which is the wage gap between places like Victoria and Duncan.” timescolonist.com/local-news/p... #canlab

Members on strike in the Cowichan Valley sent the govt a clear message at a boisterous rally at the legislature yesterday: our communities deserve better than being ignored by the French multi-national transit corporation Transdev. View the full album: www.facebook.com/media/set?va...

I joined a delegation representing Unifor members on strike in the Cowichan Valley at multiple meetings today to stress, in no uncertain terms, that the govt must follow through with the review of private transit operators.
