Mētis Construction is a community of highly skilled and motivated craftspeople who have come together to form a worker owned and controlled company. It is our goal to create and maintain a structure that will remain in place for future generations of craftspeople; a structure that promotes the practice and teaching of the trades and the fostering of craftsmanship; a structure that facilitates worker ownership and hence promotes the financial viability of the trades as a career choice. We hope to provide an alternative model to that which dominates the marketplace and leads to the alienation of individuals from the products of their labor, the people with whom they work, the people for whom they produce, and the natural world.
