Premier Christy Clark took her lunch break with workers on a Victoria construction project Wednesday, receiving the endorsement of the Ironworkers International Union and its B.C. local.

香蕉视频直播淲e may not agree with Premier Clark on every issue, or the BC Liberals, but we believe their plan for economic growth, for apprenticeship training and all the lunch bucket and kitchen table issues that affect our members is the right one for us,香蕉视频直播� said Doug Parton, Ironworkers Local 97 business manager, surrounded by union members on the site of a new downtown building. Local 97 has 1,800 members in B.C.

The Ironworkers endorsement came as the B.C. Federation of Labour launched an attack ad depicting Clark in an 80s-style video game, wearing a hardhat as she collects points for closing a school and understaffing a seniors香蕉视频直播� home.

Parton said his union is a member of the B.C. Fed, but he doesn香蕉视频直播檛 agree with them campaigning for the NDP in the May 9 election.

香蕉视频直播淔or years they香蕉视频直播檝e been known and thought of as a labour party, but what香蕉视频直播檚 happened in the past has us very concerned,香蕉视频直播� Parton said. 香蕉视频直播淲hen they came out against the George Massey bridge, that香蕉视频直播檚 a direct attack against the ironworkers, and I can香蕉视频直播檛 take that any other way.香蕉视频直播�

NDP leader John Horgan said Local 97 didn香蕉视频直播檛 endorse anyone in the last election, and shrugged off the endorsement as Clark finding 香蕉视频直播渢wo members of the labour movement to stand with her香蕉视频直播� long before the election campaign.

Horgan said he sides with Lower Mainland mayors who did not choose the Massey tunnel replacement.

香蕉视频直播淭he member who is currently representing Kelowna [Clark] may not have as good an understanding of what the transportation needs are in the Lower Mainland,香蕉视频直播� Horgan said.
