We’re proud to share a few recent updates that reflect our values and growing presence across Canada.
Mentorship Moment in Landscape|Paysages Magazine
Heidi Redman, LEES Principal and practice lead for our Northern Office, recently contributed a “mentorship moment” to Landscapes/Paysages Magazine (LP), honouring the mentorship she received from Catriona Hearn, who was a Senior Associate at LEES when Heidi first joined the firm.

LEES+Associates is a Living Wage Employer
LEES is proud to be a certified Living Wage Employer. According to Living Wage BC, a living wage is the hourly amount that someone needs to earn to cover basic expenses, from housing and food, to transportation and childcare. While the minimum wage is legislated by the provincial government, the living wage standard allows employers to do better.
Becoming Living Wage Certified reflects LEES’ desire to support our staff’s health, well-being, and quality of life. Fair compensation helps our team thrive. Ensuring fair pay reflects our vision to build a sustainable company that has a meaningful impact on people, the land, and communities.
We are proud of our work in Canada’s northern regions
While LEES has had an office in Whitehorse since 2016, we have recently expanded our Yukon presence, with a larger team, a dedicated webpage specifically for the Yukon office, and a new workspace in downtown Whitehorse, at 1114 Front Street!

We’re excited about these milestones and grateful for the communities we serve.
