Unity and Strength for Forestry Workers - ACT NOW!

Jan 14, 2021

Thousands of USW, & forestry members could lose their jobs if wrong decisions are made affecting the future of the forestry employment industry in British Columbia.

We need to tell Premier John Horgan that walking the walk on labour values means saying NO to damaging policies that harm workers and their families. It takes LESS THAN ONE MINUTE to send a letter so your voice is heard in Victoria. PLEASE ACT NOW!

USW Local 1-2017 members support healthy jobs in forestry. We are asking Premier Horgan to stand with us in favour of UNITY AND STRENGTH FOR WORKERS.
