For almost 80 years, the Electrical Contractors’ Association of Ontario (ECAO) has served and represented the interests of Ontario’s industry-leading, unionized electrical contractors. Over those many decades, ECAO has stepped up during times of challenge to support our members in their unfailing delivery of safe, skilled electrical and communications construction and maintenance services to businesses across Ontario.
We are closely following the threat of tariffs on Canadian goods by the United States, and the inevitable Canadian response. We know that this latest challenge to Canada’s contracting industry is causing concern and uncertainty among ECAO’s 550 members who employ over 17,000 skilled tradespeople across Ontario.
ECAO will continue to support our members’ success through this latest challenge with expert communication and education, and through advocacy with our government, labour and industry partners. We welcome our members and other interested parties to visit our website’s new ‘Tariff Tracker’ section at www.ecao.org to access articles and updates by industry experts on the potential US-imposed tariffs and their impacts.
Today and every day, ECAO is committed to working to advance the interests of our members and support the success of Ontario’s growing and robust construction industry.
Graeme Aitken, Executive Director, ECAO
