CBTU Applauds Partnership Agreement between British Columbia and Canada

Canada’s Building Trades Unions applauds the recent partnership agreement between the Premier of British Columbia, David Eby, and the Office of the Prime Minister of Canada | Cabinet du premier ministre du Canada, Mark Carney. Bringing more than $5 billion in investments into the province’s infrastructure, this new partnership will transform, connect, and modernize communities across British Columbia.

From roads and waterways to schools and hospitals, this investment will launch or accelerate the great work our brothers and sisters are doing on projects large and small.

As Canada continues to fund and approve projects both federally and provincially, our members are ready to get boots on the ground and help build Canada and our communities strong.
