CN EcoConnexions From the Ground Up will provide funding for the greening of municipal properties across Canada, especially in communities where CN operates. CN EcoConnexions, with its partners Tree Canada and Communities in Bloom, will help Canadian municipalities establish tree plantings in a sustainable, environmentally responsible manner.
With a true transcontinental network that extends to three North American coasts, CN passes through a wide range of urban and rural communities. We encourage those communities along the CN corridor to take environmental action by improving their communities through natural landscaping, groundcover improvement, floral displays and healthy urban forests.
CN EcoConnexions From the Ground Up is intended to enhance your community’s environmental/social health and wellbeing as it relates to one or more of the following:
- Urban forests
- Traffic calming and safety
- School greening
- Transforming spaces
- Naturalized areas, park creation or restoration
