This #WorldMentalHealthDay, we emphasize a safe site isn’t just about physical safety; it’s also about supporting each other’s mental health. Let’s create an environment where everyone feels valued and heard. It’s okay to ask for help, it's okay to take some time for yourself.

We're giving thanks for the hardworking members who build our province (we're looking at you) and commit to making construction safer for everyone (thank you). Enjoy your weekend and we'll be back in office and visiting sites on Tuesday, October 14.
