Vista Clearing Canada-United States Boundary

The Government of Canada, through Natural Resources Canada and the International Boundary Commission, is seeking contractors to perform vista clearing along the Canada-United States boundary. The work requires maintaining a consistent 6.1-metre-wide clear zone free of trees, shrubs, and other vegetation to ensure the boundary line remains visibly distinct and accurately aligned between official monuments. Each segment of the cleared vista must appear as a straight, even-line skyline of uniform width to support the demarcation purpose of the boundary. The work will occur across various locations throughout Canada and demands precision, technical expertise, and the ability to operate in remote and potentially rugged terrain. The solicitation, identified as NRCan-5000073014-B, was posted on July 10, 2026, with proposals due by August 18, 2026. This federal contract is open to qualified bidders without specific set-aside restrictions and is administered by the Department of Natural Resources. The contracting authority is Caroline Sirois, who can be contacted directly via email or phone for inquiries. All performance activities are to take place within Canada along the international boundary, and contractors are expected to understand the importance of environmental sensitivity, adherence to survey markers, and the strict visibility standards required for this historically and diplomatically significant function.
