Truth and Reconciliation Statement
Executive Protection Services acknowledges that we operate on the traditional and unceded territories of Indigenous Peoples who have stewarded these lands since time immemorial. We recognize the enduring presence, cultures, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples across Canada.
We are committed to advancing Truth and Reconciliation by aligning our practices with the principles outlined in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, particularly Call to Action 92, which calls upon the corporate sector to adopt the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as a reconciliation framework.

We will provide ongoing training for our staff and leadership to deepen understanding of Indigenous histories, cultures, and the legacy of residential schools.
Inclusive Employment:
We are dedicated to creating equitable opportunities for Indigenous Peoples within our workforce and supporting Indigenous-owned businesses through procurement and partnerships.
Respectful Engagement:
We will build and nurture respectful, long-term relationships with Indigenous communities, guided by principles of mutual trust, transparency, and consent.
Cultural Recognition:
We will honour and celebrate Indigenous cultures and voices by participating in national and local events such as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Indigenous History Month.
Accountability:
We will measure and report on our progress, and remain open to feedback from Indigenous partners and communities to ensure our actions are meaningful and sustained.
