Beyond Attitude Consulting acknowledges we operate in Mi’kma’ki – the unceded territory and ancestral homeland of the Mi’kmaq First Nation. Our relationship is based on a series of Peace and Friendship treaties between the Mi’kmaq First Nation and the Crown, dating from 1725 to 1779. In 1999 the Supreme Court of Canada, in R v Marshall, upheld the 1752 treaty “which promised Indigenous Peoples the right to hunt and fish their lands and establish trade.”
We also acknowledge that we work and play in many unceded territories and ancestral homelands of Indigenous Peoples across North America, and respect the rights and traditions of the many First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples therein.
We are all Treaty People.

I am currently working with the British Columbia Forest Safety Council to deliver a CBSM program to reduce accidents in the forestry sector. I have felt for a long time that there is an opportunity to save lives and lost time by applying behavioural psychology to the promotion of safe practices. I am excited to see that there is a program being employed on farms in Cork, and I will be following this project with great interest.
If you read this article, you will see the classic conundrum: farmers have the correct attitude and knowledge about safety, but the behaviours don’t necessarily follow. A perfect opportunity to apply CBSM principles to improve safety.
