BC's business community has serious concerns regarding Bill 9.

Gov't is bypassing an ongoing review of the Labour Relations Code, ignoring its own consultation, to legislate a major change with wide-ranging economic consequences.

Visited the Seaspan Shipyards last week and I'm truly impressed by the incredible work they're doing. 🚢⚓️

Not only are they building ships, but they're also crafting amazing job opportunities for our community.

Keep up the great work @Seaspan!

Ed needn't have been nervous, he did a fantastic job last night at the @IPSSevent! He is an incredibly valued member of the team here at Seaspan - we were happy to profile him in a video which also highlighted HaiSea Marine, a partnership between @Haisla_Nation and Seaspan.

We had some *very* special guests at Vancouver Drydock earlier this week. @scoutscanada's Local 21 Capilano Beaver Scouts got a guided tour of our drydock + a @BCFerries vessel. With how excited they all were, there might have been a few future Seaspan employees in the group 👨‍🏭👷‍♀️

If you spot one of our special #StPatricksDay tugboats out on the water today, be sure to follow it to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow 😉💰🟢

[Seaspan @Seaspan]

“We are often told that tugboats are no place for women.” 

That outdated sentiment is why we recently held a ‘Women in Marine’ open house & networking event, w/ partners @BCFerries @bcit @WesternMaritime, designed to support, inspire and encourage diversity - at sea & on shore.

[Seaspan @Seaspan]

Today, HaiSea Marine, majority owned by @Haisla_Nation in partnership with Seaspan ULC, is celebrating 🎉 the official naming and blessing of its tug boat fleet, which includes the world’s first fully electric ⚡ harbour tug boats.
