Bouchier: Canadian Success Story from Alberta | Globalnews.ca

Another value is the promotion of the oil and gas industry as crucial in providing good paying jobs in small communities. It’s something Bourque-Bouchier makes sure to focus on when speaking across the country in front of various crowds. “The future we’ve been able to put out there for indigenous youth I think that future is very bright and it is because of this region.”

“I have lost all 3 of my younger sisters. earlier on when I was 17, my first sister to suicide….my last sibling passed away due to substance abuse issues,” she says with a slight pause in her voice and tears in her eyes. “It’s great to have all the success in the world but never thought I’d be alone enjoying it.”

“We have so many local Indigenous entrepreneurs up here, I’d say more than probably any other place in Canada. And that opportunity exists because of the oilsands up here. Director of Operations Rick Kuperis says Bouchier doesn’t just ‘talk the talk’ but actually commits to its value system in its day-to-day workflow rather than letting workers become just a number. “It’s really enlightening and refreshing to see the commitment they have to the community here,” he says.
