November 22, 2023 | By Anthony Capkun



November 22, 2023 – Enbridge Gas will continue as a sponsor of the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Program—and the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Initiatives—at Skills Ontario.

“Through our own DE&I goals, we continue to strengthen our commitment to increasing diversity representation in our workplaces and hope that, by demonstrating inclusion in action, underrepresented youth in Ontario will feel valued for their perspective, empowered to share their voice and confident to grow their career in any industry they choose,” said Dean Dalpe, Enbridge Gas.

During its 2022-2023 fiscal year, Skills Ontario reports it saw more than 15,000 participants—in-person and virtual—across the two programs.

“We are looking forward to continuing to work with communities across Ontario to ensure that we are providing equal opportunities for all youth and building a diverse and robust skilled workforce,” said Ian Howcroft, CEO, Skills Ontario.
