Discover Canacre.

Since 2010.

Canacre is a consulting company specializing in services that support the successful development of large-scale infrastructure projects across Canada and the United States. Canacre has cultivated a team of professionals with unmatched expertise in land and right-of-way, environment, project management, GIS and geomatics, and project development services.

Over the last decade our team has amassed impressive accomplishments that have supported multiple successful projects in the pipeline, renewable energy, distributed energy, transmission, telecommunications, transportation, and public works sectors.

Canacre aims to function as a project partner with our clients, and we feel strongly that our partners’ successes are our successes. From Canacre’s inception in 2010, our team has focused on identifying areas of expertise in several infrastructure development industries that are under-serviced or are in need of improved efficiency and accuracy. Our team has developed processes and innovations that address these deficiencies and has created an integrated and agile framework of service teams to assist our clients in realizing their development goals.

Canacre’s successful project delivery relies on a thorough understanding of the project, nearby communities, surrounding environments, and applicable regulatory and permitting requirements. Addressing the unique challenges that a project presents is a key factor in successfully fulfilling a project’s mandate. Canacre’s unique service offerings are designed to understand and strategically meet these challenges. Canacre has earned an excellent reputation for our ability to manage large and complex projects, which we attribute to the significant experience of our technical teams.

Canacre became a Quanta Services Company in July of 2021. This exciting step in our company development provides Canacre with a depth of corporate capacity and expertise that facilitates the expansion of our strategic land and project services to a wider client base throughout North America and beyond.

Quanta Services is the leading specialty contractor with the largest highly trained, skilled workforce in North America – providing fully integrated infrastructure solutions for the electric power, underground utility, and communications industries. The company’s geographic footprint spans North America and Australia, and its network of companies ensures world-class execution with local delivery.

A letter from Kara.

I believe our employees are our most valuable asset and our commitment to their safety and well-being is paramount. Canacre's culture is embraced and nurtured by our leadership team, and is founded on mutual trust, respect, and honesty. These principles extend to our health and safety policies and our ongoing commitment to incorporating best practices in all facets of our operations to promote a safe and positive work environment. Our leadership’s commitment to safety sets the expectations of performance and accountability throughout our company to each member of our team. Our employees are empowered to identify and mitigate workplace hazards, helping us to create and foster safe work behaviours and attitudes every day.

These core commitments to safety, mutual trust, respect, and honesty allow us to maintain high standards for the safety of our team, as well as our project partners, and the communities we work in. Initiating regular safety assessments in all of our varied workplace locations is a fundamental aspect of our belief in continuous improvement and our ongoing goal of achieving and maintaining a zero injury workplace. This was clear in our response and perseverance during 2020’s unprecedented events, to prioritize safe working conditions for our employees and communities. Our strength and resolve have been demonstrated through continual risk management assessments, continuity planning, preventative and alternative measures, mitigation procedures, and the use of personal protective equipment.

Simply put, safety is about protecting people, whether it is our employees, partners, subcontractors, or surrounding communities. Canacre’s respect and appreciation for people is our motivating force toward a safe and healthy workplace.
