Monday, May 29, 2017 Victoria—The coalition announced by BC NDP Leader John Horgan and BC Green Leader Andrew Weaver reflects the will of BC’s voters and can initiate positive change, says Unifor. “This is a historic day that our members worked very hard for,” said Jerry Dias, Unifor National President. “The BC Liberals governed for their wealthy donors. A new government that serves working families is long overdue in British Columbia.” With an NDP-Green minority government in place, Unifor says that BC can forge ahead with plans for $10/day childcare, a $15 minimum wage, and eventually eliminating MSP fees. “Life became increasingly unaffordable for working families under the BC Liberals,” said Joie Warnock, Unifor’s Western Regional Director “On May 9, British Columbians embraced parties that committed to affordability and sustainable job growth.” For more information, please contact Unifor Communications Representative Ian Boyko at @email or 778-903-6549 (cell).
