Yesterday I was invited to speak at the unveiling of a 1.25bn capital expenditure BC Hydro spending project for the city of Burnaby. I joined the Energy Minister Osborne, and speaker of the house Raj Johan and VP Utilities Rysa Kronebusch. Very weird having multiple TV Cameras pointed at me, but able to share on the priority of creating good union jobs in the energy sector.

Graeme Hutchison, president, MoveUP (The Movement of United Professionals) –

“This substantial investment by BC Hydro will ensure a safe electrical supply for generations. It is not only an investment in critical infrastructure, but also in the future of people in British Columbia. It is an investment to help people power their homes, businesses, and vehicles. It will also create good paying, unionized jobs in our communities for workers like our members at BC Hydro and Powertech who provide an essential service to people across the province every day.”
