- Structure, Activities, and Supply Chains
The Company is an Automotive Dealer Group based in Hamilton, Ontario, with locations in
Burlington, Ontario, and Guelph, Ontario. The Company specializes in the retail sales of motor
vehicles, as well as fleet sales, and in-house leasing. Among other things, we offer retail sales of
parts, comprehensive vehicle servicing and repairs, as well as body shop repairs.As a dealer group of new and used vehicles and their parts, our supply chain is primarily based on
the supply chain of automotive manufacturers. Specifically, as authorized General Motors Canada,
Honda Canada, Nissan Canada, Infiniti Canada, and Mazda Canada dealer locations, the majority of
the Company’s procurement spend is with these original equipment manufacturers.General Motors Canada: https://www.gm.ca/en/home.html/,
Honda Canada: https://www.honda.ca/en/,
Nissan Canada: https://www.nissan.ca/,
Infiniti Canada: https://www.infiniti.ca/,
Mazda Canada: https://www.mazda.ca/.We also purchase goods and services from other third-party suppliers such as cleaners, contractors,
etc. We ensure that due diligence is carried out by asking our suppliers to provide information on
their own policies regarding their sourcing of goods and services, as well as their employment
practices.
- Polices and Due Diligence Processes
The Company will take appropriate measures to ensure no Forced Labour or Child Labour occurs
within our organization including the company, suppliers, vendors, and contractors. The employer
will verify the age of the employee at the time of employment, training company workers,
communicating the policy with anyone who the company does business with, including, but not
limited to, suppliers, vendors, and contractors. Additionally, as far as practicable, the dealership will
ensure that forced/child labour has not been used in our supply chain and will ensure that where
possible vendors that can assure there is no forced/child labour will be the vendor of choice.The Company will submit an annual report on or before May 31st of each year outlining the
prevention and reduction of risk that forced labour or child labour isn’t being used within our
organization or supply chain in relation to goods that are imported into Canada by the Company.
The company will assess our supply chain to make sure we are mitigating the risk of forced/child
labour in relation to our operations and supply chain. We will use vendors in our supply chain that
adhere to our policy and legislation. The company will utilize ESG supportive and ethically sourced
vendors where applicable in order to assure that regional workers have a fair opportunity for
income.The Company expects that employees will assist in the fulfilment of responsibilities under this policy
manual and all applicable laws. The Company recognizes that both the employer and the employee
have obligations in maintaining a safe, compliant, and fair workplace. Employees are expected to
ensure an understanding of this policy and issues around forced/child labour. Any employee who
feels that there is a breach of this policy are asked to report to Human Resources,
[email protected]. All reports will be gathered in good faith and will be investigated by
the Company. If the Company, through the course of an investigation, discovers that modern slavery
has occurred, in any form, the business relationship with the offending organization will
immediately be terminated.
- Assessment of Forced Labour and Child Labour Risks
The Company has not independently engaged in its own risk assessment with regards to forced
labour or child labour in its supply chain. As the majority of the Company’s supply chain is based on
the supply chain of General Motors Canada, Honda Canada, Nissan Canada, Infiniti Canada, and
Mazda Canada, it relies on the assessment undertaken by these OEMs with regards to the extent of
this risk.

remediation measures have been taken.

forced labour or child labour from its supply chain has led to the loss of income, and so no
