The environment, the diversity of its nature and creatures, all of them are very important and crucial to our planet. We must protect all that is part of nature and this is one of the many reasons why we at ContactsforLess.ca support the David Suzuki Foundation.

We collaborate with Canadians from all walks of life, including government and business, to conserve our environment and find solutions that will create a sustainable Canada through science-based research, education and policy work. Our mission is to protect the diversity of nature and our quality of life, now and for the future.
