Terry Harbort, Talisker’s President, and CEO commented, “This Ore Hauling Agreement is a critical part of our operations and the partnership between Stromsten Enterprises and Bridge River Management Corporation, a wholly owned economic development corporation of the Bridge River Indian Band (Xwisten), provides for a direct participation of Bridge River Management in the Bralorne operations of Talisker. This Ore Hauling Agreement underscores Talisker’s commitment to building positive working relationships with Indigenous communities in the areas in which we work.”

Steve Hughes, CEO Bridge River Management LP commented, “By having Xwisten people drive the trucks for ore hauling, this initiative not only supports capacity building within the community but also creates a pathway for future opportunities and sustainable development. It’s encouraging to see partnerships like this that prioritize community involvement and empowerment.”
