Introducing “Precision”: A Symbol of Respect and Collaboration

The artwork, titled “Precision” is a powerful representation of our commitment to fostering respect, collaboration, and positive change. This original piece is exclusive to Universal Rail Systems and will play a central role in our Indigenous-related communications, serving as a visual embodiment of our dedication to these principles.

“Precision” is rich with symbolic elements that reflect the diverse cultures and stories of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples across Canada. The artwork features a First Nation Teepee, representing the stories and cultures of First Nations Peoples; an Inukshuk, symbolizing the Inuit Peoples and their heritage; and a Métis Sash, with its distinct red, orange, and blue colors spanning from left to right, representing the Métis Peoples.

The right side of the artwork depicts homes in Northern Canada, a region where Universal Rail Systems plays a crucial role in ensuring that rail lines are safe and secure to deliver critical supplies. A yellow tamper, central to the image, contains a bird within its design, symbolizing precision and adaptability—qualities that are essential in our work. Embedded within the landscape is a turtle, representing “Turtle Island,” and a beaver above the tamper, symbolizing our commitment to environmentally conscious engineering and construction. The diverse land scenery in the artwork represents Canada’s vast landscapes, from coast to coast to coast, where Universal Rail Systems operates.
