DE-ICERChances are you’ve either been to, or heard about the CANS De-Icer - and if not, you don’t know what you’re missing.

With over 1800 guests the De-Icer is the largest industry event in the province. Taking place in April at the Cunard Centre in Halifax, the De-Icer kicks off the upcoming busy construction season.

GET IN FRONT OF THE INDUSTRY THROUGH SPONSORSHIP

With five sell-out events each year there no better way to get in front of the construction industry in Nova Scotia than by sponsoring a CANS event. Set up and network at our De-Icer, make connections with a fun activity at our Annual Golf Tournament, or build relationships at our Annual General Meeting.
