CN has recognized 73 of its customers, suppliers and supply chain partners for their dedication to sustainability through its EcoConnexions Partnership Program. The initiative celebrates businesses advancing climate action, reducing environmental impact, promoting biodiversity and adopting sustainable and ethical practices.

“We are proud to work with partners who share our vision and commitment to building a sustainable future,” said Remi G. Lalonde, CN’s executive vice-president and chief commercial officer. “Sustainability is a journey that requires collaboration across the entire supply chain. Together, we are working to drive meaningful change, and this program is an example of our progress.”

The program has been expanded this year to recognize partners at gold, silver and bronze levels, and to mark the achievements of its partners, CN is planting 100,000 trees in partnership with Tree Canada.

“Engaging with our suppliers is a key element in achieving CN’s sustainability goals,” said JJ Dratva, vice-president of procurement and supply management. “Through programs like EcoConnexions, we’re recognizing the essential contributions of our partners and reinforcing the importance of sustainable procurement practices in delivering responsibly across the supply chain.”
