Boralex commits to valuing First Nations culture

At Boralex we believe our strength is our employee’s expertise, competence, and ingenuity. Our company’s strength and society’s strength are enhanced through diversity and equal opportunities. Racism, in all forms, deprives our society of expertise, competence and ingenuity. At Boralex we are committed to addressing racism through action.

At Boralex, we have built bonds of respect and trust with our business partners from Indigenous communities. In 2020, we made the committment to grow the respect for the people and culture of the First Nations. We believe that the richness and diversity of their culture must be better understood.

It is therefore with both pride and humility that we launched a training program that focuses on the appreciation of Indigenous cultures in Canada. It is mandatory for all our Canadian employees - current and future - as well as for our senior management.

Produced together with the “4 Seasons of Reconciliation”, in collaboration with the First Nations University of Canada, this training will allow participants to deepen their knowledge of Indigenous cultures and to be made more aware of the realities of First Nations, Inuit and Métis.

This initiative reflects the direction Boralex wants to take towards a more inclusive corporate culture and society, all while becoming more and more attentive and determined.
