Hospitality Workers Rally Outside Horizon North Office in Edmonton to Demand Fair Treatment

Edmonton, AB – Dexterra Horizon North camp hospitality workers, members of UNITE HERE Local 40, gathered outside Horizon North’s Edmonton travel hub yesterday morning in a spirited demonstration calling for respect, fair treatment, and enforcement of their hard-won contract.

Workers arrived with flags and energy as they demanded better working conditions in remote resource camps across northern British Columbia. Horizon North, a subsidiary of Dexterra Group (TSE: DXT), dispatches workers from Edmonton to remote camps where they endure 20-day rotations, 10 to 12 hour workdays, and long travel times away from their families.

“Today’s rally shows the strength and determination of camp workers who are ready to fight for the respect they deserve,” said Miranda Nedd, First Cook at Kobes Creek Lodge. “We are the backbone of Horizon North’s operations, yet we continue to face unfair treatment. That has to change.”

The successful demonstration marks an escalation in workers’ push for improved conditions, highlighting the growing frustration with Horizon North’s treatment of union members.

UNITE HERE Local 40 represents approximately 1,000 camp hospitality workers and successfully negotiated new contracts at Red Chris Mine, Cedar Valley Lodge, Kobes Creek Attachie and CPC Montney Lodge earlier this year. The union continues to raise standards for workers across the sector.
