Vernon, B.C. — Today, we are proud to announce that the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business (CCAB) has awarded Tolko Industries Ltd. Bronze-level standing in their Progressive Aboriginal Relations (PAR) certification program. Obtaining certification in the PAR program signifies an organization’s commitment and performance in four key areas: Leadership Actions, Business Development, Employment, and Community Relationships. “We are very pleased to have achieved Bronze-level certification in the PAR program,” said Bob Fleet, Vice President, Environment and Forestry. “Tolko is committed to diversity and inclusion and creating partnerships with Indigenous communities based on trust and mutual respect. This accomplishment demonstrates our successes, such as procuring over $65 million annually from over 100 Indigenous suppliers and provides us with a framework to ensure greater prosperity for the Indigenous communities we work side by side with every day.”
