So, AEC stands behind our employees when they reach out to help the community, as part of our commitment to corporate responsibility. The guiding influence is, again, capacity building, and recent examples were mentioned in the video. In the months ahead, you will also be hearing more about a unique Integrative Health Information Centre, another first for Canada, and yet another great idea that evolved in Calgary. But corporate social responsibility is not just a ledger of donations. It is also a conscience on the environmental front.
Environmental responsibility is a matter of facts, and real performance.
There are some in this world, indeed this province, that choose not to deal with fact, but bask in irresponsible rhetoric, that is sometimes seized and propagated by the media. Then, there are very reputable organizations that share a passion for the environment and manifest that passion through constructive and cooperative initiatives. It has an educational focus that reflects those beliefs, and it supports grassroots environmental programs at the community level. Alberta Ecotrust is an example of both bridging understanding and capacity building. For AEC, it illustrates how you can partner with others to develop strong communities.
