          estern Pacific Enterprises Ltd. (WPE) has
        
        
          been widely recognized as a leading electrical
        
        
          contractor for over four decades, working on
        
        
          some of the west coast’s largest projects. Even those unfamil-
        
        
          iar with the electrical industry will recognize some of WPE’s
        
        
          most notable projects, such as any public transit line in B.C.,
        
        
          and the Vancouver Convention Centre, for instance.
        
        
          Since 1973, WPE has changed the landscape of Western
        
        
          Canada through innovative and comprehensive electrical
        
        
          expertise, with a legacy of contributing to the biggest projects
        
        
          across the industry thanks to a highly diversified team. Now a
        
        
          second-generation company, WPE has grown to become one
        
        
          of the largest contracting firms in Western Canada with cross-
        
        
          sector capabilities. But despite its growth, WPE is as sought
        
        
          out by employees as it is clients due to the ability to maintain
        
        
          employee-centric corporate culture, implemented by friends
        
        
          and founders Dieter Fettback and Ernie Moore.
