Celebrating D+I at Toyota Canada
A Friendship Renewed
For National Indigenous History Month, Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada (TMMC) hosted a Charging of the Eagle Feather Ceremony to recognize and celebrate the relationship between Conestoga College, Toyota Canada Inc. (TCI), and TMMC.
Members of DRIVE (a TCI business partnering group) along with executives from TCI and Toyota Credit Canada Inc. attended the ceremony, which included taking hold of the eagle feather during a traditional prayer and lighting of sage and smoke in a bowl to recharge the feather.
Rated Gold for Accessibility
In June, Toyota Canada’s new Eastern Canada Parts Distribution Centre in Clarington, Ontario, earned a Gold rating for accessibility from Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification™—the top rating awarded by the program.
“This achievement is testament to Toyota Canada’s ongoing leadership in creating a more inclusive society. We’re proud to work with an organization that continues to put accessibility at the heart of its overall business commitments.”
