The MLA for Saint John Lancaster does know the man who scaled the Ludlow Street Pedway.
Abel Leblanc tells CHSJ News, he first met this man back in 2003 when he was having trouble with the carpenters union but internal problems between the protestor and union kept the man from finding work.
Leblanc says he sent a letter to Washington on his behalf but to no avail, the man was kicked out of the union.
Leblanc adds he also tried to get the man into Public Housing but it never happened.
