Working Together, We Will Make Progress
"I am very privileged to be the Business Manager of Local 92, having served the membership in this role now for almost 15 years. Although the last few years have been challenging as we navigated through a pandemic and a global energy crisis, I am positive that the future will be full of opportunities for our members.
The outlook for 2024 is promising with the emergence of new industrial construction, an increasing demand on maintenance projects, a strong pipeline sector experiencing new mainline construction, ongoing maintenance work and a projected record-breaking year in distribution. We are also seeing an increase demand in the commercial sector as we continuously gain market share.
We are working closely with industry and government as the country transitions to renewable energy sources. We know that responsible resources development in Canada is the answer to not only our energy needs, it is the solution to reducing global emissions.
We continue to work closely with our oil and gas sector knowing that Canadian petroleum production has one of the highest environment regulatory processes, as well as ethic work practices. We continue to lobby to ensure that our members are part of all energy project development in our province.
I would like to thank and acknowledge each member for their continued excellence – it is your skilled work and professionalism that makes Local 92 the outstanding local we are."
