The devastating wildfire that has swept through Fort McMurray and the surrounding area, forcing the evacuation of the city and numerous project sites and camps, is one that touches the Bird and Nason family deeply.

In order to encourage a coordinated relief response, the provincial and federal governments are matching all donations to the Canadian Red Cross. Bird and its subsidiaries, including Nason, are making an initial donation of $50,000, and as part of our own matching program for all employees, Bird will match all donations exceeding our initial donation.

With summer now upon us, kids out of school and families across the country looking to maximize our enjoyment of that precious but limited commodity we call good weather, it’s important to remember that safety at home is just as important as safety on the job when it comes to engaging in all manner of summer sport and recreational activity.

Remember everyone, you may be on vacation or just enjoying the weekend, but hazards don’t take holidays. The best summer recipes always include an ounce of prevention.

BuildForce Canada predicts the Canadian construction labour force needs to attract 132,000 workers, in addition to replacing the vacancies left by retirements, to meet demands from 2014 to 2023. Women can help fill that gap. http://goo.gl/E3d8qx We are currently looking for Journeyman Welders and B-Pressure Welders. Apply at http://goo.gl/yNZiBc

In Canada, women represent only four per cent of the construction trade workforce and the Journeyman initiative hopes to substantially increase that number by debunking myths and stereotypes about women in the trades.
