Wednesday, May 13, 2020 CLAC Welcomes MLA as New Liaison with Private-Sector Unions Appointment should create more access for union workers to have concerns heard News Edmonton—CLAC congratulates Searle Turton, MLA for Spruce Grove-Stony Plain, on his recent appointment by the Ministry of Labour as liaison with Alberta’s private-sector unions. CLAC is pleased to see the Alberta government’s relaunch program taking shape as it works to create jobs and expand the economy. This appointment is a step in the right direction as it also creates more access for union workers to have their concerns heard. “MLA Turton is a great choice for this role,” says Dennis Perrin, CLAC Prairies director. “Searle is a journeyperson carpenter and scaffolder, and has demonstrated the ability to effectively understand the concerns of working Albertans. He is clearly committed to putting more and more Albertans to work, and this move by the Alberta government demonstrates that. CLAC looks forward to working with Searle in his expanded role.” Previous Next You might be interested in Skill and Care on the Milk Route 17 Sep 2026 Building Skills, Growing Careers 15 Sep 2026 CLAC's Statement on Canada's Energy Future 14 Sep 2026 Seeing Clearly 13 Sep 2026
