Today, on National Indigenous Peoples Day, we pause to honour and celebrate the rich cultures, histories, and contributions of Indigenous communities. This day is more than a recognition—it is a call to action for each of us to acknowledge the deep connections and invaluable wisdom that Indigenous peoples bring to our societies. As a company, we understand the importance of this day and strive to foster a culture of respect, inclusion, and learning. We are committed to supporting Indigenous voices and initiatives through actionable steps. Yesterday, Quadra had a company-wide fireside chat with Garett Cochrane, a proud born and raised 2SLGBTQ Metis Yellowknifer who is currently serving as Deputy Mayor of Yellowknife. Garett spoke candidly about the challenges still being faced by Indigenous communities, and the actions needed to drive change. At Quadra, we are committed to helping drive the change Garett spoke about in the following ways: Support and Empowerment: We actively seek partnerships with Indigenous businesses and communities, promoting sustainable economic opportunities that honour traditional knowledge and practices. Education and Awareness: We encourage our team members to educate themselves about Indigenous histories and contemporary issues, and we are incorporating discussions such as our fireside chat to help broaden everyone’s knowledge. Sustainable Practices: Recognizing the profound environmental stewardship of Indigenous peoples, we are deepening our commitment to sustainable practices that reflect respect for the land and its resources. Advocacy and Representation: We are dedicated to amplifying Indigenous voices within our organization and the broader community, ensuring representation and advocacy in our policies and initiatives. Today, let’s all take a moment to reflect on the resilience, strength, and contributions of Indigenous peoples. Let’s commit to being allies in the journey toward reconciliation, understanding, and mutual respect. #indigenouspeoplesday #quadragroup #bequadra
