Indigenous Recognition

Indigenous Recognition

At ELM we value our relationships with Indigenous communities in the areas in which we work. In the spirit of reconciliation in adherence to UNDRIP (the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples), we endeavour to protect indigenous heritage and to maintain open communication and dialogue to gain a further understanding of their needs and greater respect for their culture. ELM supports Indigenous organizations and initiatives that contribute to sustainable social development, through a collaborative framework.

We are engaged in indigenous partnerships and joint venture opportunities founded on these principles. ELM offers contracting opportunities to qualified Indigenous companies, suppliers, and contractors, where appropriate. We believe in building long-term relationships by prioritizing opportunities for qualified local Indigenous vendors to participate in new projects.

Why Work With Us

Our Work in Treaty 8

 

"The Loon River First Nation has witnessed firsthand the quality of ELM's work and the company's commitment to our treaty lands as they carried out all of our abandonment, decommissioning and reclamation/remediation programs, They are sensitive to project timelines and budgets with a keen focus on communication throughout the entire process...

We had prior knowledge of their reputation for "doing things right" and in a respectful manner. We did not want to cut corners as we restored our land back to its natural state thus preserving it for our Nation's future generations."

- Chief Ivan Sawan, Loon River First Nation
