Participation in Recyc-Quebec Joint Committee on Recyclable Materials
The successful proponent tasked with executing the project is WSP, in collaboration with NI Corporation and Deloitte. The project’s kick-off meeting was held May 24, 2016 and the project is expected to wrap-up by the end of September.
Collaboration Agreement with Eco Entreprises Quebec
The two partners have committed to supporting one another’s efforts and collaborating in three key areas of activity: sharing and dissemination of information through communication tools and participation in task forces; promotion of best practices and support of municipalities’ efforts to drive recycling education with residents and in schools; and initiatives to optimize the curbside collection value chain.
In 2016, Carton Council Canada is providing support to CBCRA for growing their already successful Recycle Everywhere 101 program even further, including extending the reach of the program, educating more schoolchildren about recycling and increasing accessibility to beverage container recycling at all schools in Manitoba.
Concretely, the CCC’s funding support is being used to hire an additional staff member for an eight-month period to augment existing on-the-grounds resources (direct promotion and support to schools). As of February 2016, 70% of all the schools in the province (JK-12) were on on-board with the Recycle Everywhere 101 program. Through a combined effort of the existing team and the additional staff member, the goal is to reach 95% coverage by the end of the year.
