Back to the Moody

The four ferries BC Ferries are building in China won’t be the last ferries we need. We need a plan to build the next ferries we need here, with Canadian parts, made by Canadian workers. #buildthemhere #bcpoli #bclab

Yesterday, we stood with B.C. unions and launched the Build Them Here campaign. Take action today at buildthemhere.ca ⛴️🍁 #buildthemhere #bcpoli #bcferries

Photo of the Week: When you spot a familiar face on the other ferry. 👋😂 Thanks to Andrew Glen for sending us this very West Coast workplace moment! ⛴️

Canada is at its strongest when workers have the power to speak up, organize, and stand up for their rights. This upcoming #LabourDay, we're calling on the government to protect the rights that make stronger workplaces and a stronger Canada possible.

We’ve been asked to buy Canadian at the grocery store. Why doesn't the same apply to ferries? 🎙️ Listen to President Eric McNeely on CFAX this morning. #BuildThemHere

No time to waste on making ferry vessel manufacturing a reality in B.C.: unions #BCpoli

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952
