Letter: Unions have been essential to Alberta economy

By Letter to the Editor on October 20, 2022.

Dear editor,

To an uninformed writer: The construction unions in Alberta built Suncor and Syncrude.

In the 2000s we doubled the size of both, while building four other world-class facilities in the Fort Mc Murray area. All Alberta construction union labour, and with no strike contracts. This is where all the revenue comes from.

Give us the pipeline contract to the East Coast we will build that, too.
