One union will be launching a national campaign to stop methane leaks and ensure utilities are providing safe and modern gas infrastructure for Canadians.
This comes after Enbridge Gas’ proposal to eliminate the evening and overnight emergency response shift. That would spell danger for Canadians, says Unifor.
“The disregard for public safety is breath-taking,” says Lana Payne, Unifor national president. “If the company does not have enough workers to fulfil critical emergency roles, it is because it has laid off too many workers in pursuit of returns for shareholders.”
