On Wednesday a crane dropped its load onto a building under construction in Vancouver’s Oakridge neighbourhood, killing one person.

The tragedy comes the same week the RCMP recommended British Columbia’s Prosecution Service pursue a criminal negligence charge in the Kelowna crane collapse that killed five people in July 2021.

The RCMP hasn’t revealed who should be charged, and while WorkSafeBC completed its investigation last May, it has not made its findings public. But now the father of one of the victims as well as a prominent union, are making it clear training requirements are inadequate and would likely not be considered an acceptable safety standard by any health and safety professional.
