IBEW 2085

1 week ago

As members of Manitoba’s Building Trades family, we were proud of Daniel Blaikie’s election to Parliament form Winnipeg Elmwood-Transcona in 2015. Daniel is a member of IBEW Local 2085 and since his election, has been a tireless advocate for working people across Canada.
Daniel has spoken on our behalf on many issues including employment, safety, pensions, healthcare and supporting the union movement in Canada. As a member of our building trades family, Daniel has always remembered where he comes from and why standing beside us and for us is so important in a time when worker and union rights are under attack in many places.
On October 21, Canadians will go back to the polls. As with 2015, our efforts are focussed on preventing the election of anti-union and anti-worker right-wing candidates and making sure that hard-working and supportive people like Daniel Blaikie are returned to Ottawa. In some Winnipeg ridings, we have highlighted the support from the Liberal Government in the past four years.
But we want to leave no doubt that we are 100% behind Daniel and in Winnipeg ElmwoodTranscona, there is no other choice but to support the NDP and Daniel Blaikie. He is our one and only choice as the Member of Parliament in Elmwood-Transcona.
We encourage all members in Winnipeg Elmwood-Transcona to support Daniel by volunteering for his campaign, donating to his campaign and most importantly, voting for him on October 21. With our strong commitment, we can make sure that one of Canada’s hardest working MP’s is back in Ottawa to continue his work on our behalf.
In solidarity,
