Access to health care starts with training the people who deliver it.

By expanding paramedic and EMR programs at @OkanaganCollege’s Vernon campus, @JIBCnews is responding to the needs of Interior B.C., by training students close to home and strengthening care for communities.

(1/4) In September, we recognize both Environmental Services Week (EVSW) and International Housekeepers Week (IHW). Across our healthcare system, facilities staff work day and night to keep our medical facilities clean and safe for patients and fellow staff.

The Temporary Foreign Worker Program has always been about exploitation. That has to stop, and stop now.

So does scapegoating migrant workers for our affordability and housing crisis, instead of addressing corporate profiteering and decades of government underinvestment.

Across the province, our members, families, and allies showed up in force—wearing our shirts, buttons, and union pride—to celebrate the power of working people.

With our Public Sector Strike Vote having closed last Friday with 92.7% support for strike action, Labour Day was a powerful reminder: when we stand together, we win.

Thank you to everyone who marched, rallied, and represented BCGEU in your communities. The fight for fair wages, safe workplaces, and respect on the job continues—and we’re just getting started.

Solidarity with @cupw members during this pivotal week.

A strong, public postal service keeps our communities connected, coast to coast to coast. It’s not a luxury. It’s essential.

That means supporting the postal workers who make it all happen.

[Canadian Labour @CanadianLabour]

.@cupw members aren’t just fighting for a contract, they’re defending a public postal system that connects people, drives local economies, and supports equity across Canada.

Canada’s unions stand in full solidarity with CUPW. They deserve a fair deal.

Great thread on union activist and socialist Albert “Ginger” Goodwin (born May 10, 1887), a former Vice President of the BC Federation of Labour (@BCfed), who was murdered by police in British Columbia on July 27, 1918.

Protect the Public Post Office!

Tell your member of parliament to stand up and protect our public postal service, and its jobs, before it’s too late.
