Building Support Here

“This project helped make the traffic run smoother and more safely. This work is how I make my living, and the money was great, so it has had lots of benefits.”

Building Diversity Here

“I live about halfway between Chase and Salmon Arm, so I was hired as a local. I think it’s important to get site workers from the area and include Indigenous workers as part of that too. I enjoyed working with a diverse group of people, and it’s great to see everyone getting the chance to contribute to the project and help build their own community.”
