Remembering Kenny Chohan

Five years ago today, on June 12, brother Kulwant (Kenny) Chohan died while working at Deas Dock. Kenny was a welder, a father, a husband and a friend.

His death is a devastating and enduring reminder of why workplace safety matters, that every worker deserves to come home alive.

BC Ferries was fined for unsafe work practices following Kenny’s death. On the fifth anniversary, they are still fighting those penalties. As his union, we will continue to seek justice in Kenny’s name.

Kenny’s life ended early. It ended tragically and preventably. We won’t forget.

Support Kenny’s family by participating in or contributing to their memorial golf tournament.
