On June 17, 1978 BCFMWU signed our first Collective Agreement.
Today under Provincial President Eric McNeely, BCFMWU is the largest Maritime Union in Canada, representing over 4500 members, from across 35 vessels, 47 ports of call, and numerous other job sites. BCFMWU membership includes a diverse group of Trades, Ships’ Officers, Commercial Services Drivers and Unlicensed Workers, both ship and shore.
There is much history yet to write for BCFMWU but we are forever grateful to those that fought for our Union and our members and we pledge to continue their legacy.
