Vancouver Paperworkers Rally For Union Rights
Some 700 striking paperworkers joined hundreds of other
unionists and supporters in picketing Fletcher Challenge in
Vancouver, British Columbia, October 28. About 2,400 workers
at three pulp and paper mills are in the fifth month of
their strike against the company's demands for job
combinations, year-round operations, and more outsourcing.
"We need more of these rallies, to get our message out to
the public," said striker Gordie Howatt.
