    La Garde côtière canadienne et la Nation Heiltsuk annoncent un projet pilote de 5 millions de dollars pour appuyer l’établissement de l’équipe d’intervention d’urgence maritime Heiltsuk

    Bella Bella, Colombie-Britannique - Les communautés côtières autochtones entretiennent des liens avec les océans du Canada depuis plusieurs générations. Dans le cadre de la prochaine phase du Plan de protection des océans du Canada, le gouvernement du Canada collabore avec les Premières Nations pour améliorer davantage la façon dont nous intervenons en cas d'urgence maritime. Aujourd'hui, la ministre des Pêches, des Océans et de la Garde côtière canadienne, l'honorable Joyce Murray, et la Nation Heiltsuk ont annoncé le lancement du projet pilote de l'Équipe d'intervention d'urgence maritime Heiltsuk, qui vise à améliorer la sécurité maritime sur la côte centrale de la Colombie-Britannique. Dans le cadre du Plan de protection des océans, la Garde côtière canadienne fournit plus de 5 millions de dollars pour lancer immédiatement un projet pilote visant à appuyer la mise sur pied de l'Équipe d'intervention d'urgence maritime Heiltsuk. Cette équipe sera intégrée au système fédéral de préparation et d'intervention maritimes en tant qu'intervenant tiers en cas d'incidents de pollution marine. Le projet comprendra la mobilisation des membres de la collectivité, des exercices et de la formation sur l'eau, l'achat d'équipement, et l'élaboration de stratégies d'intervention sur le territoire des Heiltsuk. Il s'agit de l'une des nombreuses collaborations entre la Garde côtière canadienne et la Nation Heiltsuk. Le gouvernement du Canada et la Nation Heiltsuk continuent de travailler ensemble pour améliorer le rôle de la Nation dans l'intervention environnementale maritime, afin de fournir une capacité d'intervention d'urgence sur les côtes de la Colombie-Britannique. S'appuyant sur plusieurs années de discussions collaboratives, un protocole d'entente a été signé en mars 2021, officialisant un engagement entre la Nation et le gouvernement du Canada à améliorer la capacité communautaire d'intervention en cas de déversement d'hydrocarbures, y compris la mise sur pied de l'équipe d'intervention d'urgence maritime Heiltsuk. Le Plan de protection des océans est une réussite canadienne. Lorsque les peuples autochtones, l'industrie, les collectivités, le milieu universitaire et le gouvernement travaillent ensemble pour protéger notre environnement, faire croître notre économie, et soutenir de bons emplois partout au pays, nous obtenons des résultats concrets. Un Plan de protection des océans renouvelé et élargi préservera la santé de nos océans et de nos côtes, fera progresser la réconciliation, et b'tira un avenir propre pour nos enfants et nos petits-enfants. https://www.canada.ca/fr/garde-cotiere-canadienne/nouvelles/2022/10/la-garde-cotiere-canadienne-et-la-nation-heiltsuk-annoncent-un-projet-pilote-de-5-millions-de-dollars-pour-appuyer-letablissement-de-lequipe-dinter.html

    DRAKKAR and Avianor partner to fuel growth of Quebec aerospace cluster

    DRAKKAR, a world-class company specialized in operational outsourcing within sectors including aerospace, and Avianor, a complete commercial aviation cabin integration specialist and MRO organization, have finalized a partnership agreement which will enable Avianor to accelerate its growth strategy. With the help of Ernst & Young Orenda Corporate Finance, Avianor strongly believes the strategic and Canadian-based company DRAKKAR is the best partner to secure the future of Avianor. Following this transaction, effective as of Feb. 28, 2019, the Avianor board of directors now consists of Earl Diamond, CEO of Avianor; Sylvain Savard, president and founder of Avianor; along with two new members from DRAKKAR, Denis Deschamps, president and CEO of Drakkar & Partners; and Benoit Hudon, president and CEO of the company's manufacturing business unit. Over the past 24 years, Avianor has become a leader in the aviation industry by distinguishing itself through innovative problem solving, maintaining a skilled workforce and a flexible corporate culture. Although Avianor will remain an independent operation, DRAKKAR will now provide Avianor with strategic, tactical, financial, operational, business development and training support to help the company accelerate and achieve its consolidation and growth plan while meeting customers' satisfaction. Part of this plan also includes the renovation of a new and additional facility with over 100,000 square feet of hangars and offices with airside access at Montreal-Mirabel International Airport (YMX). “This new partnership reinforces the global positioning of our business as a high-caliber outsourcing team with the ability to optimize operations while keeping in mind productivity, efficiency and quality,” said Deschamps and Hudon. “With over 25 years of experience and expertise in outsourcing, this is a major turning point for our manufacturing business unit as it opens the door to the convergence and deployment of its global service offer. “DRAKKAR Manufacturing fits perfectly with our vision of creating our own innovative manufacturing ecosystem in one of our leading sectors, working collaboratively with our employees, partners, customers and suppliers as well as our own infrastructure,” added Deschamps and Hudon. “For us, this association with DRAKKAR reflects our determination and willingness to meet the needs of our existing and future clients and shows our concrete commitment to perpetuate Avianor activities over the long term and secure hundreds of jobs here in Quebec at the Mirabel Airport,” said Savard and Diamond. “With a current workforce of over 2,500 people and a solid experience in operations management, DRAKKAR will help us achieve the operational efficiency required of a large enterprise while ensuring personalized service is provided to all our clients.” “It is a proud moment for Aéro Montreal to see these companies conclude a partnership agreement with the objective of uniting their forces and combining their complementary expertise to create a strong added value within the industry,” said Suzanne M. Benoit, president of Aéro Montreal. “In addition to fostering economic growth and job creation across Canada, this type of partnership contributes to an even stronger, more competitive and prosperous Quebec aerospace industry. “It is a common and shared priority to ensure the visibility and influence of the companies that make up our industrial cluster, and in order to do so, we must effectively offer the OEMs more integrated solutions.” https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/drakkar-and-avianor-partner-to-fuel-growth-of-quebec-aerospace-cluster
