Alberta workers have a plan for the global energy transition; Smith offers only fear and spin.
AFL president Gil McGowan has written a special column for Labour Day on The Tyee:
On this Labour Day long weekend, who do you think is standing up for the best interests of Alberta workers?
Is it Premier Danielle Smith, who suggests that anyone who questions the future of oil and gas in the province is essentially betraying workers?
Or is it people like me, the president of Alberta’s largest worker advocacy group, who say workers in our province would be better served if we prepare ourselves for change instead of burying our heads in the sand?
