Women in Contracting
In March 2021, Canadian Contractor joined B2B trade channels across the country to celebrate the amazing accomplishments of women in construction across Canada and promote the next generation of young female leaders in our industry. We knew it was a good idea, but what we didn’t know was how many incredible stories are out there and how proud you are of the women that work in your businesses.
Don’t take our word for it. Below you will find some of the dozens of heartfelt messages we received extolling the tremendous contributions of women in our field. Canadian Contractor associate editor Sukanya Ray Ghosh has conducted video interviews with some of these nominees, and you can find those here, too. Our goal is to continue reaching out to these amazing women and bringing their stories to you.
If you think a woman in your organization should be on this list, please send your testimonial to Patrick Flannery at pflannery@annexbusinessmedia.com!
