Workers win commitment to build ferries here
Premier David Eby has committed to building the next generation of BC Ferries vessels in B.C. That commitment came after workers and supporters made the case for bringing this work home.
Thank you to every member who wrote a letter, spoke up and worked hard to get us here. You helped make this happen.
On September 21, the Build Them Here coalition met with the premier to talk about what comes next: a clear construction schedule, Canadian materials and a role for the workers who will build, operate and maintain these vessels.
The provincial election announced September 22 doesn’t change our goal: a clear plan to build the next ferries here, with workers at the table.
The commitment is a win. We’ll keep working to turn it into ferries built here.
