Construction Labour Relations Alberta (CLRA) extends its congratulations to Sean Strickland, Executive Director of Canada’s Building Trades Unions (CBTU), on his recent appointment as Chair of the Board of Directors for Helmets to Hardhats (H2H) Canada.
Helmets to Hardhats is a vital national non-profit organization that connects Veterans, reservists, military family members, and Afghan interpreters with meaningful career opportunities in Canada’s unionized construction industry. The organization plays a key role in easing the transition to civilian life while helping to address the skilled labour needs of our sector.
Sean brings a wealth of experience and leadership to the H2H Board. Through his work at CBTU, he has been a tireless advocate for the skilled trades and for strengthening the unionized construction workforce across Canada. We are confident his appointment will further elevate the mission of Helmets to Hardhats and support continued success for both Veterans and the broader construction industry.
We also recognize and thank outgoing Chair Alex Loula for his years of dedicated service and leadership. His contributions have helped shape H2H into the impactful organization it is today.
On behalf of CLRA and our members, we congratulate Sean on this well-deserved appointment and look forward to supporting Helmets to Hardhats as it continues this important work.
