We’re proud to be the wine choice for so many Canadians. We acknowledge that there is work to be done within the Canadian wine industry to foster a more welcoming, diverse and inclusive world for everyone. These are our commitments to making our dream of an inclusive wine world a reality.
Keeping ourselves accountable
We value diversity of opinions immensely. For many of our programs, we are guided by the advice and opinions of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion teams inside out organization and out.
We have a long journey of education and hard work ahead of us to create a more inclusive world, but we’re dedicated to making it a reality.
Amplify the voices of Black, Indigenous, and all people of colour and increase their representation in the wine world.
We’ve partnered with Vinequity to help ensure that people who identify as BIPOC are given equitable treatment and access to opportunity to grow and thrive in the Canadian wine industry.
We’re also doing more to help diversify the ranks of the wine industry, especially in leadership roles. To achieve this much-needed goal, we’re collaborating on a scholarship program that will provide marginalized communities with access to high quality wine education and support.
The Local Artist series was created to use our privilege to amplify the voices and talents of recording artists, musicians, and bands from underrepresented communities across Canada.
We’re working with incredible artists from coast-to-coast to introduce Jackson-Triggs wine lovers to their music. From specialty bottles, to features online, we’re sharing our platforms to help raise theirs.
Check out some of the latest Local Artist Series artists now and help support rising Canadian talent.
