A Farewell Post

Today is my last day at Sierra Club Canada and so this will be my final blog post.  I’ve never been big on goodbyes so I will keep it short.

I began my time here at SCC as an intern and was honoured to be able to stay on for a few more months as the Campaign Coordinator.  Over this period I was fortunate enough to be involved in a number of campaigns ranging from turtles to climate change.  I’ve enjoyed the challenge and learning experience and will take these lessons learned with me into the future.

I can also say, without hesitation, that I have never been around a group of people who are as committed, if not more so, than I to the values that I hold dear.  For this, I must offer a sincere thank you to my coworkers. 

There are always ups and downs, good times and bad, but the environment is an issue that will always require people, like those that I had the pleasure of working with, to continue to speak up and fight for its protection.

For this reason, SCC is needed more than ever.

So keep up the good fight SCC.  Farewell and best wishes.
