On our jobsites, we look out for each other — and that support doesn’t stop when the workday ends.

Construction can mean long hours, tough conditions, and high pressure. Whether it’s on site or away from work, taking a minute to check in, have a conversation, or ask for support matters just as much as wearing your PPE.

Bell Let’s Talk Day may have been yesterday, but the message still stands: talking helps. Let’s keep supporting one another and building strong crews — on and off the jobsite.

This time of year is about reflection and gratitude, and at our Calgary Christmas party we were proud to celebrate two truly remarkable career milestones.

👏 Gus Stamm, celebrated 45 years with Whissell—a testament to loyalty, dedication, and a legacy of excellence that has helped shape who we are today.

🚜 We also celebrated the retirement of Donnie Anderson, one of our equipment operators after an incredible 50-year career. Five decades of skill, hard work, and commitment is nothing short of inspiring.

These milestones represent more than years of service—they reflect the pride, perseverance, and people-first culture that make Whissell such a special place to work. Thank you for everything you’ve contributed to our company and our communities. 💙

✨ Wishing our employees, partners, clients and their families a joyful holiday season and a safe, successful year ahead.
