    BC Federation of Labour: Do The Right Thing, Ban Log Exports
    Federation calls on BC Liberals to stop shipping jobs south
    Vancouver - "What’s wrong with this picture? Unemployment is way up and log export volumes are about to set a new record high," asked Jim Sinclair, President of the B.C. Federation of Labour.

    "I’ll tell you what’s wrong. We got a government in Victoria that thinks this is okay and they are prepared to sit on their hands while our high quality logs head south and our mills sit idle," said Sinclair.
