Damera Group Welcomes Minister Stephen Crawford

It was a distinct honour to welcome the Hon. Minister Stephen Crawford, Ontario’s Minister of Public and Business Service Delivery and Procurement, to Damera Group’s Mississauga facility for a constructive discussion on the future of public transportation in Ontario.

‍

The conversation focused on innovation in transit — and what it truly requires to succeed in practice.

‍

At Damera Group, advancing modern transit solutions goes beyond introducing electric minibuses, motorcoaches, and charging infrastructure. Sustainable mobility must be engineered, supported, and sustained over time. Through our technical expertise, field diagnostics experience, parts distribution network, and lifecycle fleet support programs, we ensure that new technologies are not only deployed, but integrated responsibly into real operating environments.

‍

Electric sustainable mobility represents a structural transformation in public transportation. For transit agencies, it means transitioning to lower-emission fleets while managing infrastructure upgrades, high-voltage systems, workforce readiness, and long-term cost control. The transition is not simply environmental — it is operational and economic.

‍

‍

For Ontario and Canada, this shift strengthens domestic technical expertise, expands high-value engineering capabilities, and reinforces the province’s role in building resilient and competitive transportation systems. It aligns environmental responsibility with economic development.

‍

Our impact lies in bridging innovation with operational reality. With hands-on experience in heavy-duty fleet maintenance, diagnostics, refurbishment, and lifecycle management, we understand the performance pressures transit agencies face daily — from durability demands to downtime risks and cost efficiency targets. This depth of knowledge shapes how we evaluate and support new technologies in Canadian conditions.

‍

Electric mobility becomes meaningful when it is maintainable, serviceable, and economically sustainable. By strengthening local technical capacity and contributing to the modernization of fleet management practices, Damera Group helps advance smarter, more resilient transportation networks across Ontario.

‍

‍

We thank the Honourable Minister Crawford for engaging in a meaningful dialogue about how Ontario-based expertise can continue shaping the future of mobility in a practical and responsible way.
