Unemployed Labourers Turn to Common Council for Support

Common Council is being asked where they stand in regards to non-unionized workers at the Canaport LNG terminal. Tradespeople spokesperson Mike Duncan says right now there are 104 workers from outside the province employed by Integral Energy Services Limited at the facility, rather than skilled New Brunswickers.

Duncan says there are currently 412 unemployed tradespeople in the city, which is having a negative effect on the local economy.
