Premier Rachel Notley visited Lodge 146’s office and training centre in Calgary on Wednesday, May 30, 2018, to announce she was standing with the working people of Alberta and supports the Trans Mountain pipeline to the Canadian coastline by backstopping the project up to $2 billion.

Of the role that the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers’ Lodge 146 has played in Alberta, Premier Notley said “For 70 years the union has represented professional welders, and riggers, and fitters, women and men who helped to build the oil sands, develop our resources and build our manufacturing strengths. Without all of you, your skills, your sweat, your experience, Alberta would not be the economic engine we are today.”
