The FTQ Construction has withdrawn the union representative card from its famous agent on the North Shore, Bernard Gauthier. He could no longer represent the union on construction sites. He maintains various tasks in the office of local 791 in Sept-Îles.

Bernard Gauthier explains himself on social networks. He admits to having used his outspokenness in certain discussions. “I have the language of a trade unionist. »

Bernard Gauthier maintains on Facebook that he expressed his disappointment at not having received help from the FTQ authorities. “It doesn’t do their business. They took away my card. Don’t worry, I’m not going on unemployment…”

No support at the right time

In a video, Mr. Gauthier says he prefers social networks rather than responding to the “merdias” who have been chasing him since yesterday. He specifies that he did not have the help of senior management of the FTQ, but that he won his case for the health and safety of workers on a Hydro-Québec site in the region of Pessamit.

He describes the FTQ Construction as a great flagship of Quebecers, “but the plane is sometimes poorly piloted…” Bernard Gauthier affirms that he receives a lot of support and messages of love, from business people, workers from ‘Innu of the region.

“I worked to help our world. They are disconnected in town. When your central office is in control and it doesn’t find security urgent… It doesn’t work. They can go beyond the rules and regulations to muzzle me… It doesn’t work. I will never shut up when it comes to defending our workers. I’m a local kid… I’m not doing this because I want to take someone’s place in town. At home, I wouldn’t give up…”
