This , we take a moment to pause, reflect, and honour the countless individuals who have served and continue to serve our country with courage and selflessness.

Remembrance Day is not only about looking back at history, but also about recognizing the strength and resilience that continue to shape our communities today. It reminds us of the cost of freedom and the collective responsibility we all share in fostering peace.

As a team, we are taking this day to reflect quietly on the sacrifices made by so many. May their legacy inspire us to lead with empathy, kindness, and respect for one another.

This , weโ€™re focusing on hydration!

Drinking enough water helps boost productivity and support your bodyโ€™s key functions. On average, women should aim for about 2.7 litres (11 cups) of fluids per day, while men should aim for around 3.7 litres (15 cups).

Try keeping a water bottle nearby, infusing your water with fruit for extra flavour, or setting reminders to sip regularly to make sure youโ€™re getting the fluids you need.

Here at Iridia, we remain deeply committed to Truth and Reconciliation. Our team is taking time to reflect and deepen our understanding of Indigenous history. Through meaningful conversations, we honour the past while working to foster a more compassionate future for all.

In Vancouver, tomorrowโ€™s Intergenerational March at UBC offers an important opportunity to honour Residential School Survivors and their families while learning about the impacts of colonialism and Indigenous resilience.

For those unable to attend in person, there are also many free online resources, such as the โ€œIntroduction to Reconciliationโ€ webinar from the First Nations Public Service Secretariat, or UBCโ€™s โ€œReconciliation Through Indigenous Educationโ€ course, which provide ways to deepen understanding year-round.

We encourage everyone to continue this journey of learning and to seek out meaningful opportunities to listen, reflect, and take action.

Iridians on the Go!

Here at Iridia, our employees are always staying active and challenging themselves athletically. Today, we want to take a moment to highlight some of the recent activities our Iridians have been involved in.

Our President, Vern, completed the Gran Fondo Whistler; our Marketing Specialist, Genty, recently participated in the Vancouver Triathlon; and our Sales and Client Support team member, Oscar, ran the Handloggers Half Marathon!

We canโ€™t wait to see where their athletic pursuits take them next!

09/23/2025

Your ability to sit down and stand up might reveal more about your future health than you think.

Vern and Dan break down the Sit-to-Stand Test - a simple move that packs a powerful message about mobility, stability, and longevity.
