Description
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
3rd Session
42nd Parliament
A
That
number
also
includes
15
workers
who
died
as
a
result
of
motor
vehicle
crashes
and
47
others
who
suffered
traumatic
injuries
such
as
the
horrific
crane
collapse
in
kelowna,
which
claimed
five
lives
and
two
brothers,
mr
speaker,
one
family
that
lost
two
sons,
and
we
just
learned
yesterday
that
of
the
unfortunate
passing
of
lonnie
heroka
on
vancouver
island,
a
logger
and
united
steelworker
all
of
these
deaths.
All
of
them
were
preventable,
and
that
makes
it
all
the
more
tragic
and
this
year
we're
marking
a
terrible
anniversary.
A
The
10th
anniversary
of
the
devastating
sawmill
explosions
at
the
babin
forest
products
mill
near
burns
lake
in
the
lake
land
sawmill
in
prince
george,
four
people
were
killed
and
44
others
were
injured
in
those
disasters
and
our
province
was
shaken
to
its
core.
I
offer
my
deepest
condolences
to
all
of
those
who
have
lost
a
loved
one
colleague
or
friend,
and
to
those
who
continue
to
suffer
from
illness
or
injury
caused
by
work,
and
I
ask
this
house
to
join
me
in
recommitting
to
workplace
safety.
