On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with new Vancouver Regional Construction Association president Jeannine Martin about her plans as she takes the helm of the organization.
The latest stories in the Daily Commercial News and the Journal of Commerce include Premier Doug Ford and his government facing heat after Bonnie Lysyk, the province’s auditor general said the decision to open the Greenbelt region to housing construction favored “certain developers”. And Unifor National president Lana Payne is calling out SNC-Lavalin for firing the head of a union that represents hundreds of its engineers and other workers.
Martin discusses her previous construction industry experience, as well as how she intends to collaborate with the British Columbia Construction Association in the push for prompt payment legislation as well as working with other construction associations across the province and in Alberta.
