The B.C. Ferry & Marine Workers Union (BCFMWU), representing over 4,500 workers across ship and shore operations, is the premier maritime union in Canada. Established as the sole bargaining agent for ferry workers in 1979, the union has played a pivotal role in labor negotiations and the protection of worker rights in British Columbia's ferry system. Founded against the backdrop of privatization efforts initiated by the Coastal Ferry Act in 2003, BCFMWU has confronted challenges such as fleet-wide strikes and ongoing inclusion-exclusion disputes. The union is committed to advocating for its members' interests, ensuring safety and fair labor practices in the maritime sector. Generated from the website
