AtkinsRéalis, a world-class engineering services and nuclear company with offices around the world, welcomes Warrior Engineering Ltd. as a new ambassador in support of the Canadians for CANDU campaign.
The Canadians for CANDU campaign was launched on February 28, 2024. Spearheaded by Co-Chairs the Right Honourable Jean Chrétien and former Ontario Premier Mike Harris, the campaign promotes the deployment of CANDU® nuclear technology at home and abroad in support of Canadian and global efforts to reach net-zero emissions.
“I would like to thank Warrior Engineering Ltd. for their leadership in Canada’s world class nuclear sector, and their support for CANDU technology,” said Joe St. Julian. “This growing movement can position Canada as a global clean energy champion, while promoting a domestic nuclear industry that Canadians can be proud of.”
“We fully support this initiative and are keen to play a role in helping raise awareness among Canadians of the importance of home-grown CANDU technology for the energy transition, and also for economic growth and the continued prosperity of the Canadian supply chain,” said Jason Thompson, President and CEO of Warrior Engineering Ltd. “The growth of the Canadian nuclear industry creates exciting opportunities for Indigenous leadership in engineering and other STEM fields.”
Thompson is also the CEO of Superior Strategies, a 100 per cent Indigenous owned professional services firm that offers quality project management, human resources, and safety services.
