GPS Electrical

Although GPS Electrical strives to contract the north. From time to time we are asked to do off-reserve work. A little FYI, off-reserve work experience is where Glen, the Master Electrician, gained electrical knowledge. Here we are upgrading a household from 100 amp to 200 amp. We work closely with the local hydro suppliers and ESA for clearance.

We would like to acknowledge Elden Wesley, and Terence Chakasim for doing a fantastic job at Creefest in Kashechewan, ON. They made sure Creefest’s electrical needs were met. We would like to emphasize that Elden is a local community member from Kashechewan, ON. It is GPS’s vision to see local members performing the electrical work of their hometown community. A big round of applause for the great work Elden and Terence did.

First Quebec contract. This small-sized company aimed high and reached their goal in becoming dual-licensed. Anything is possible when you work hard. Just can’t give up. ... GPS’s mission is to help our own people becoming licensed in the trade. We are in the works.

GPS Electrical is getting ready for its first work in Quebec. Glen Sutherland, the master electrician, and his apprentice will be in Whapmagoostui very soon. We are a cree-owned electrical contracting company who is dedicated in providing electrical services to First Nations communities as we aim to get our very own First Nations people trained and meet qualifications in the trade. GPS Electrical has been operational since December 2012 in Ontario and has been looking to ex...pand in the Quebec region for a few years. Getting our contracting license to operate in Quebec has been a tough journey but since January 2018 we have acquired our CMEQ (Corporation des Maîtres Electricien du Québec) license. Looking forward working in Whapmagoostui Quebec.
