“We are pleased to be chosen by the Peguis First Nation as their partner,” said Boris Rassin, President, ATCO Sustainable Communities. “There are several communities across Manitoba that can benefit from our approach to community infrastructure solutions. I know that by working with the Peguis First Nation, the capabilities of our respective organizations will make this combined team a preferred provider of those solutions.”

“Peguis First Nation has a long history of building relationships and forging alliances with others to pursue the economic development of our community,” said Chief Glenn Hudson of Peguis First Nation. “This agreement will support our efforts to develop capacity in training, jobs and construction opportunities which will give us a solid foundation for the future.”
