Kwantlen Polytechnic University Métis Nation Government of BC Childcare & Early Childhood Education Training Centre in Surrey– Construction Progress

Mass timber taking shape at KPU’s Childcare & Early Childhood Education Training Centre in Surrey.

The structure is now well underway, with the glulam beam-and-column system and timber roof framing clearly defining the building form. The exposed wood structure will serve both a structural and architectural role, creating warm, natural learning environments.

Developed in partnership with Métis Nation BC, the project reflects a shared commitment to community-focused, culturally grounded spaces.

Highlights at this stage:
• Clean, efficient glulam framing and connections
• Expressed roof structure with strong daylighting
• Deep overhangs supporting passive design
• Courtyard form beginning to emerge

✨ Thank You to Everyone Behind the Meeting Point Co-Design Challenge ✨

Over the four days of Design Victoria 2026, The Meeting Point transformed the Rotunda into a vibrant hub for creativity, conversation and community connection.

Emerging from the Design Victoria Meeting Point Co-Design Challenge, the installation reimagined the Design Victoria “DV” as both a sculptural gathering place and a participatory design project — an evolving reflection of the collaborative spirit that shaped it.

A huge thank you to the incredible team who stewarded this project through the co-design process:
🖍️ @rickdiculousme 

🖍️ @breannedr 

🖍️ Maureen Elmer

🖍️ @smartdesignstudio 

🖍️ Jignaa Vala

And thank you to the many partners and supporters who helped bring this project to life:

✨ Sponsored by:
@rjc_engineers and @ame_group 


✨ Delivered in collaboration with:
@man.and.son.design, @dhk.architects, and @buildingmaterialexchange 


✨ Fabrication support from @makespacenorthpark

✨ CNC cutting by @toolpathdesign 

✨ Paint generously donated by @marlenajacksonadr

✨ Stools generously provided by @gabrielrossshop

What a line up of collaborators!!

We also want to extend a special thank you to @jawlproperties for generously hosting the Meeting Point in the Rotunda and creating a welcoming place for the community to gather throughout the festival.

And finally — thank you to everyone who participated in the co-design sessions and contributed ideas, energy and creativity along the way. This project was a reminder of what can happen when a design community comes together. We were able to capture a few images of our exhibition that documented the concepts coming out of the Co-Design Challenge.

And thank you to the many partners and supporters who helped bring this project to life:

✨ Sponsored by:
@rjc_engineers and @ame_group 


✨ Delivered in collaboration with:
@man.and.son.design, @dhk.architects, and @buildingmaterialexchange 


✨ Fabrication support from @makespacenorthpark

✨ CNC cutting by @toolpathdesign 

✨ Paint generously donated by @marlenajacksonadr

✨ Stools generously provided by @gabrielrossshop

What a line up of collaborators!!

We also want to extend a special thank you to @jawlproperties for generously hosting the Meeting Point in the Rotunda and creating a welcoming place for the community to gather throughout the festival.

And finally — thank you to everyone who participated in the co-design sessions and contributed ideas, energy and creativity along the way. This project was a reminder of what can happen when a design community comes together. We were able to capture a few images of our exhibition that documented the concepts coming out of the Co-Design Challenge.

✨ Thank You to Everyone Behind the Meeting Point Co-Design Challenge ✨

Over the four days of Design Victoria 2026, The Meeting Point transformed the Rotunda into a vibrant hub for creativity, conversation and community connection.

Emerging from the Design Victoria Meeting Point Co-Design Challenge, the installation reimagined the Design Victoria “DV” as both a sculptural gathering place and a participatory design project — an evolving reflection of the collaborative spirit that shaped it.

A huge thank you to the incredible team who stewarded this project through the co-design process:

Our Calgary and Vancouver teams were out giving back in their communities!

In Calgary, AMErs joined the City of Calgary’s annual Pathway and River Cleanup along the Bow River in Inglewood. In Vancouver, our team took part in the City of Vancouver’s Neighbourhood Cleanup Party at Kitsilano Beach.

A good reminder that small actions add up, especially when done together!

It is with sadness that we share that Henry De Jong has passed away.

Henry joined AME in 2024 as Technical Lead - Controls, in our Vancouver office. He brought decades of experience in building automation and digital control systems, having worked in the industry since 1987.
Before joining AME, Henry was with ESC Automation. Following its acquisition by Ainsworth, he stepped into retirement and continued to support the industry as an advisor before joining AME and contributing his experience to our teams.

Henry was well known for his training programs, travelling between AME offices and sharing his knowledge of controls across the company. Those who worked with him knew him for his patience, responsiveness, and practical insight. He was a trusted resource and a steady presence.

He will be missed by many across AME and the broader industry.

This is what three years running looks like.

AME is proud to be named one of Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers for 2026!

This recognition belongs to the people who make AME what it is every day, building connection, supporting each other, and growing their careers. It also shows up in the ways we make room for life outside of work, too.

Mathew Actemichuk, on Paula’s Team: “I’m excited to work in a well-supported atmosphere where I can be challenged and grow.”

Join us in welcoming them to AME. We’re looking forward to working together and supporting their growth as they begin their journey with us.

March is National Engineering Month, a time to recognize the people shaping how our communities live, move, and grow.

Meet Anastasia Peters, Mechanical Designer. She started as a co-op student working on residential high-rise projects, returned after graduation, and now contributes her expertise with Team Reza.

"I love how helpful my team is. They support each other through tricky design challenges, and I enjoy sharing my knowledge with new co-op students."

Anastasia’s experience reflects how collaboration and mentorship shape strong teams and meaningful engineering work.
