What a turnout across B.C.!
Tonight in Surrey, we wrapped up our 2026 Retiree Dinners, bringing retired Operating Engineers together across B.C.
Thank you to the OEBPP team for making it possible.
To our retirees: You built this Union. We’re proud to carry it forward.
Two days focused on becoming better at what we do.

Always learning. Always improving.
Building B.C. means putting B.C. workers to work.
