25th Anniversary of the Brownie Awards

This year’s awards program is featuring a special anniversary award and a refresh of other categories to bring the qualifications up to speed on the latest advancements and to reflect a triple bottom line perspective on outstanding brownfield projects and people in the industry.

The call for nominations was initiated earlier than usual, to provide a more accessible time frame for applicants from across the country to participate in the nomination process. The Brownie Awards Jury is encouraging additional projects and industry leaders from eastern, western, and northern Canada, and remote communities to participate.
