Forest union brass endorses leader running for federal Liberals By GREG JOYCE, Canadian Press
BURNABY, B.C. - The head of a powerful forest industry union who is running for the Liberals in the next federal election has received the endorsement of the union's executive.
Dave Haggard announced Tuesday he is stepping down as president of the 60,000-member Industrial, Wood and Allied Workers of Canada, almost a month after word leaked that he would stand in the suburban Vancouver-area riding of New Westminster-Coquitlam. Haggard was chosen by Prime Minister Paul Martin and other candidates in the riding stepped aside, avoiding a nomination battle.
If he loses in the election, expected to be called any day, Haggard said he will be out looking for a job.------------------------------------------- posted 7:51 PM :: reference link ::
