BC shipyard workers say Government mislead them BC Shipyard General Workers' Federation News Release
A freedom of information request released today shows that BC Ferries CEO David Hahn and BC Transportation Minister Kevin Falcon intentionally misled the public in saying there was no involvement of the provincial government in the decision to build three new Super C Class ferries at a German shipyard, says the BC Shipyard General Workers' Federation.
Federation president George MacPherson says that while both Hahn and Falcon publicly stated that the government was in no way involved with BC Ferries in the $542 million decision, an email obtained through an FOI request shows that Hahn was reporting to Falcon and providing the minister with advance copies of information about the deal.
