    Forest death toll angers union - By MARK HUME, The Globe and Mail
    To Mr. Hunt, Western Canada director of the United Steelworkers, the death came as a double blow because not only does he represent unionized loggers in B.C., but he recently launched a major campaign to make the woods safer.

    Since a Steelworkers-sponsored forest fatality summit in Vancouver 10 days ago, three more loggers have died on the job.
