About Teranis

www.teranis.ca

Founded in 2006, Teranis was born out of a need to provide more inclusive, respectful and ethical services to First Nations communities, with the majority of its clients residing in such communities throughout British Columbia. Specializing in high quality, value-added professional services associated with contaminated site investigation, remediation and risk assessment, the firm’s approach is to actively engage the Nation and its membership, and to build capacity wherever possible during the environmental assessment of its land.

“I am invigorated by the opportunity that this partnership represents to apply the principle of ‘Two-Eyed Seeing’ to enhance the relationships we have built with Indigenous communities in BC and throughout Canada,” said Teranis Managing Principal, Ian Collings. “Mi’kmaw Elder, Albert Marshall, defined two-eyed seeing or Etuaptmumk as learning to see from one eye with the strengths of Indigenous knowledges and ways of knowing and from the other eye with the strengths of mainstream knowledge and ways of knowing. We see many inequities in the communities we operate in, and we believe that as part of IBI, we will be able to provide more holistic support by gaining access to the firm’s integrated professional service offering.”
