Committed to working together with local communities and stakeholders

Canadian Natural is committed to working together with local communities and stakeholders to build long-lasting positive relationships based on mutual respect. Our teams focus on improving the way we do business, to be more effective and efficient in support of a long-term, sustainable industry.

Our stakeholders consist of a broad group in proximity to our operations in Canada, the UK and Africa — including more than 24,000 landowners, 160 municipalities and 80 Indigenous communities in Western Canada, as well as industry, governments, regulators and non-governmental groups. We work together to identify opportunities for education and training, employment, business development and community investment.
