THE FUTURE OF OUR INDUSTRY

 

HeliCat Canada has created a bold new vision — Sightline 2030 — to guide the helicopter and snowcat skiing industry as it navigates bold and intentional progress to reimagine the industry. The vision maps out a journey that is based on values of public safety, environmental stewardship and excellent service. A key goal is for 100 per cent of HeliCat Canada members to be carbon neutral by 2030.

Sightline 2030 sets out a new journey based on three values:

Safety

1. Safety comes first.

Protecting our employees, guests, communities, and the public is paramount.

Stewardship

2. Stewardship roots us.

The natural environment leads our daily decision making and we are passionate about its protection.

Service

3. Service is success.

Being in service of others is how we show up, give back, do better and cultivate shared success.

 

Within these values, key objectives of Sightline 2030 include:

  • Achieving 100 per cent net carbon neutrality by 2030

  • Continuing the commitment to fund avalanche research to support the safety of HeliCat members, guests and the general public

  • Issuing a 2025 and 2028 Social Impact and Responsibility Report to measure their inclusiveness and social contributions to society

  • Continuing to work with Indigenous people and First Nations on the path to reconciliation, including by partnering with them in wildlife management regimes, caribou recovery programs and developing employment career paths into the sector for Indigenous youth

We are excited to see this ambitious vision coming to life in our beautiful province. Sightline 2030 aligns well with several government priorities
related to reconciliation and environmental sustainability, and we know our tourism industry will benefit
from this project.
