As many of you know from our announcement in early April, we rescheduled the Quebec Reclaim, Restore, Rewild (RE3) conference to June 19 – 24, 2021. We are disappointed to announce today that SWS will withdraw as a host of the rescheduled event due to prior conference commitments for 2021. SER and CLRA are pleased to continue their partnership with Université Laval to host this conference, which will now also serve both as SER’s 9th World Conference on Ecological Restoration (SER2021) and the 2021 CLRA National Conference & General Meeting. All three societies look forward to partnering again in the future, and we deeply hope that members from all the societies will still participate in this event as peatlands are such an important wetland component of Canada’s landscape.

We invite you to participate in a survey (should take approx.. 10 mins) that will help us gauge current and ongoing workforce challenges. Your participation will help to guide additional labour market measures, programs, and resources for employers to support the Canadian environmental sector.
The survey will remain open through June 30, 2020 and we encourage employers to respond on a monthly basis or as business needs evolve.
