INDIGENOUS ADVANCEMENT
Building long-term relationships with Indigenous communities across Canada
Maple Leaf Power Corporation is committed to meaningful collaboration with Indigenous peoples and their communities. We recognise that the infrastructure we build and maintain often runs through Indigenous territories, and we take that responsibility seriously, working to create partnerships that deliver real, lasting benefits to the communities we work alongside.
Our approach to Indigenous advancement is grounded in transparency, respect, and accountability. We seek to build relationships that go beyond project-by-project engagement, creating ongoing employment, economic opportunity, and community benefit through the power line industry.
Maple Leaf Power Corporation maintains a formal Indigenous Relations Policy outlining our commitments to employment, procurement, partnership, and cultural respect. Contact us to request a copy.
OUR COMMITMENTS
Employment & Training
We actively seek to employ Indigenous peoples at all levels of our organisation, providing entry-level positions with pathways to apprenticeship and long-term careers in the power line industry.
OUR COMMITMENTS
Indigenous Procurement
Where possible, we source goods and services from locally based Indigenous businesses. When proposals are otherwise equal, preference is given to locally owned and operated Indigenous companies.
OUR COMMITMENTS
Economic Participation
We look for opportunities to involve Indigenous communities and businesses as active participants in power line projects, partners in the work and its economic benefits.
OUR COMMITMENTS
Community Partnerships
We engage with Indigenous communities in the regions where we operate, developing partnerships built on shared benefit, open communication, and mutual respect.
OUR COMMITMENTS
Inclusive Workplace
Maple Leaf Power adheres to the Canadian Human Rights Act and the BC Human Rights Code. We maintain a barrier-free hiring process and embrace diversity across all roles and levels of the organisation.
OUR COMMITMENTS
Cultural Respect
We approach every community engagement with an appreciation for the cultures, values, and rights of Indigenous peoples, and a recognition of the significance of the lands on which we work.
