Episode Details

Five years after a catastrophic crane collapse in Kelowna killed five men, families still await justice as no criminal charges have been approved—despite a police recommendation from 2024. The union representing crane operators calls the delay a systemic failure, launching a campaign to pressure authorities for action. Meanwhile, BC is introducing new safety measures, including skilled-trades certification for operators and licensing for crane companies by 2027, but advocates stress that oversight must also cover employers and contractors. As civil lawsuits continue, families push for lasting change to prevent future tragedies and honor their lost loved ones.
