CIBC is proud to announce that through August 2017, Canadians and visitors to the country can now pick up a free Parks Canada 2017 Discovery Pass at any CIBC banking centre from coast-to-coast-to-coast.
The initiative to bring the outdoors to Canadians by offering an opportunity to explore all of Parks Canadaѻýs national locations, is thanks to a partnership between Parks Canada and CIBC in celebration of the bankѻýs and the countryѻýs shared 150th birthday.
ѻýWe are delighted to be partnering with CIBC to distribute Parks Canadaѻýs 2017 Discovery Passes. With CIBCѻýs reach, we can ensure that millions of Canadians have access to Parks Canadaѻýs treasured places. As we celebrate Canadaѻýs 150th anniversary of Confederation, we invite Canadians to be inspired and captivated by the stories of the people and events that shaped the Canada of today. Canadaѻýs national parks, national historic sites and national marine conservation areas enable Canadians to experience their rich history and heritage in a special way and will play a big part in the celebration of Canada 150,ѻý said Catherine McKenna, Minister of Environment and Climate Change and Minister responsible for Parks Canada.
This partnership is part of CIBCѻýs year-long celebration of its shared 150th birthday with Canada and an example of how the bank is helping people across the country demonstrate pride in their nation and show how they #StandForCanada.
ѻýOur national parks and sites are among our countryѻýs greatest treasures. We are thrilled to offer Canadians easy access to free Discovery Passes so they can experience the sights and sounds of these beautiful locations as they celebrate Canadaѻýs 150th this summer,ѻý says Christina Kramer, CIBC Executive Vice President.
