PRINCE GEORGE — The BC Resources Coalition announced Edward Hein of Prince George as the winner of their Spring Ride raffle event this afternoon (April 21).

Directors Rick Zemlak, Dan Rea, Treasurer Steve Visona, and VP Darren Heggelund delivered the bike to Ed at his residence today.

The BCRC raffled a custom Bourget Fat Daddy, nicknamed “The Tradesman”, to raise awareness for workers who have taken ill, received injury, or have lost their lives in the workplace.

“We at the BCRC couldn’t be prouder to have a Tradesman such as Ed, a millwright by trade, win this bike. We would like to thank everyone for purchasing tickets in support. We’ve had many very good conversations with you all, thank you!”

In a statement, the BCRC noted it “believes in the responsible management of our natural resources to create jobs for current and future generations. We work through communities, indigenous organizations and governments to promote engagement of all stakeholders. We promote the development of world-class environmental stewardship, manufacturing technologies and education. Our goal is to ensure we have strong local and provincial legislation for the protection and sovereignty of BC’s natural resource value-added sector to develop a diverse industrial hub in the resource industry.”
