It’s a great start
BTA statement on Bill 7: Responsible Energy Development Amendment Act
“Jobs are needed, and in order to create them, the industries that employ our members must have the confidence to invest in projects that put our folks to work. It’s that simple." BTA ED Terry Parker

Okay now do Bill 1
The Building Trades of Alberta Camp Committee, led by BTA Chairman Ian Robb and Robert Letendre, paid a visit to Athabasca Lodge yesterday following concerns about conditions at the camp raised by members.
The committee will compile its findings and report back to BTA's executive shortly. Stay safe.
They always know when the bigwigs are coming. That’s the day the food is edible.
They forgot to post pics of our choices to take to work for lunch.
Had a few clean rooms not in use set aside for inspection most likely too.
We complained about camps for many years..want to see its true colors? Go there unannounced to see the 1st star resort we deal with. Food that you get charged for animal cruelty if you give it to your dog. Why I will only go up to camp if it is the only option. I will prefer to work in my own city, eating food that is awesome with no chances of bed bugs!
2 things about this 1 did you warn them you were coming 2 seems awful empty maybe be there when its busy Not at camp but just my observation
Probably knew they coming so they good every thing nice and clean and lots to eat
I am a guest I am part of local 92 my biggest concern why is the staff not wearing masks
The dining area is nuttin tell him to go check the moulded rooms. Athabasca is just a place for all trades to get sick.
Now if they could open the jobs to all members...
Out of curiosity why is no one wearing a face covering? We are supposed to be leaders in health and safety?
Why do you need people complain so much about their jobs and their jobsites it’s always an us versus them mentality
Check out BTA's public submission to the City of Calgary regarding the city's Green Line LRT project submitted yesterday.
"Hiring Alberta’s skilled trades workforce will help foster our province’s economic recovery, as the success of that recovery will be based on Albertans being gainfully employed. When that happens, we all benefit, from workers to local businesses, shops, restaurants and more. Hiring local is good for everyone."

It would be good to see a PR campaign like this.
We are currently training all the carpenters on the south ring road bridge work in calgary, it would be great to see the green line to be completely a union project. I'm very proud of local 2103 for unionizing kewitt and graham jasper on this project. Go building trades, we need the work for all bta affiliates
A proper shout out to Alberta's health-care workers from Edmonton-born actor Michael J. Fox.
We feel the same, you have all been truly incredible. Thank you.
