MISSISSAUGA — Bird Construction has announced it has joined the Canadians for CANDU campaign.
It was launched by former prime minister Jean Chretien and former Ontario premier Mike Harris to promote the deployment of CANDU nuclear technology in Canada and abroad, stated a release.
The campaign calls on the federal and provincial governments to support made-in-Canada nuclear technology to help the country reach net-zero and support development of the domestic nuclear industry.
“We are pleased to join the Canadians for CANDU campaign and champion a technology that is a cornerstone of Canadian innovation and a key to global sustainability efforts,” said Teri McKibbon, CEO of Bird Construction, in a statement. “This collaboration reinforces Canada’s role as a builder and exporter of world-class technology, contributing to our energy independence and meeting the growing demand for electricity.”
“As an active and growing service provider in the nuclear sector, our collaboration with industry leaders to advance this campaign reflects our commitment and alignment with industry objectives,” added Bird executive Matt Cronin, the firm’s ambassador for the campaign.
