As though we needed another reminder of why workers still need protection from asbestos — and from employers who would expose them to it. This is why the province's new measures on asbestos remediation regulation are so important! cbc.ca/news/canada/british-c… #bclab

When you work as an insulator, you get to say, "I built that - that's pretty awesome." Amazing! Thanks for sharing, @thrashley12 @BCInsulators! #greatjobs #construction #skilledtrades #greenjobs @insulatorguy

Assuming a "buyer beware" attitude where #asbestos is concerned is ridiculous. Asbestos has killed/continues to kill workers, but a loophole means you can still buy it. canada.constructconnect.com/…

Great discussion w/ @WeBuildBC and their members yesterday. I took the opportunity to reiterate my commitment to strengthening workers’ futures by ensuring they have the skills they need for the changing nature of work and the labour market. Thanks for having me!
