Expertise

We chose Transfert Environnement et Société as strategic advisors to assist us in preparing for the BAPE public hearings, not only because the firm has in-depth knowledge of the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region, but also unique expertise in the social acceptability of major industrial projects as well as the BAPE.

Their strategic advices were, and still are, particularly relevant in many areas, particularly pertaining to our information and consultation process, especially through a stakeholder committee, and our indigenous relations.
