Our plan with respect to Indigenous relations revolves

around one key goal: to adopt an engagement policy and a

concrete roadmap to maximize Indigenous participation in

the projects we build. We also strive to be more intentional,

respectful and sensitive in our business relationships with

Indigenous peoples.

Indigenous peoples have faced and continue to

face signif icant socio-economic challenges and

issues that hinder their individual and collective

development. We recognize that all civil society

organizations and businesses have a shared res-

ponsibility to help improve the living conditions of

Indigenous peoples.

That’s why we’ve always wanted to collaborate with

Indigenous communities and to foster harmonious

and mutually benef icial relationships.

For more than a decade, we have carried out some

30 construction projects located in Indigenous

communities or in collaboration with them.

We recognize the importance of respecting the his-

tory and current context of First Nations, the Métis

and the Inuit. We strive to respect the legal rights of

Indigenous communities across the country, and to

preserve their beliefs, cultures, traditions, heritage

and territories in all of the projects we undertake.

We need to strike the right balance between the

importance of taking action now through short-term

measures, and the need to develop lasting and mea-

ningful business partnerships. We are convinced

that the economic growth of Indigenous peoples

has benef icial effects not only for their communi-

ties, but for Canada as a whole.

→ Collective prosperity → Indigenous relations

Make Indigenous peoples our business partners

Our plan

to strengthen

our relations with

Indigenous peoples

We are aligned with SDG 17 through all the partnerships we

are creating to advance our vision of a future of sustainable

construction, in particular alongside Indigenous peoples.

This spirit of collaboration with First Nations, the Métis

and the Inuit brings to mind SDG 10, which seeks to “re-

duce inequalities within and across countries.”
