CORE stands for Canadian Ombudsperson for Responsible Enterprise. We are a human rights ombudsperson or “ombud.” We review complaints about possible human rights abuses by Canadian companies when those companies work outside Canada in the garment, mining, and oil and gas sectors.

We are continuing to respond to inquiries and are now accepting complaints.
You can file a complaint using email or telephone. If you send a complaint or other document by mail, it will take us longer to respond because we do not have regular access to our office.
We thank you for your understanding and patience.
