About Boreal Praxis

Delighted to make
your acquaintance.

Deep roots in theory. Real-world action in the field.

A northern forest beneath low clouds

Our conviction

Life.
Wellbeing.
Dignity.

The principles behind every plan.

01

Who we are

Boreal Praxis is an emergency management consultancy based in Ottawa and serving organizations across Canada. We operate on the conviction that resilience grows from the culture of an organization. We ground our strategies in human behaviour, helping leaders think clearly, act decisively, and command with empathy.

02

What we think

We believe emergency management is defined by the ability to make difficult choices that prioritize life, wellbeing, and dignity—and then importantly but secondarily, the continuity of operations. We help clients fortify these principles so that leaders can act with conviction and integrity.

03

What we do

We help small and large organizations in healthcare, government, and the private sector anticipate, withstand, and recover from emergencies. Our work spans the emergency management continuum, yet our process always begins with listening. Our name reflects these values: "Boreal" for the resilient strength of the north, and "Praxis" for wisdom in action.

Room for
a good conversation.

We can always come to you, and “on site” is often best. However, if we need to have quiet and practical conversations or meet in larger groups, we are happy to host. Our beautiful space at 150 Elgin St is ideal for collaboration, conversation, and finding the spark. Parking, coffee, and snacks are included.
