February is recognized as American Heart Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about cardiovascular health. It is important to prioritize self-care in order to maintain a healthy heart. Engaging in regular physical activity, adopting a balanced and nutritious diet, ensuring adequate sleep, refraining from smoking, and implementing effective stress management techniques are all key factors in preventing heart disease. By actively caring for our own hearts, we inspire others to follow suit and prioritize their cardiovascular well-being. #americanheartmonth #wasteconnections

At Waste Connections of Canada, we pride ourselves on our strong commitment to creating a more sustainable future. Our environmental practices and technologies provide benefits including: organized, timely and safe waste removal from residential and business communities; diversion of waste from our landfills through our recycling facilities; and energy capture of landfill gases for productive use. Beyond meeting and exceeding regulatory expectations, we work constantly to identify best management practices that promote environmental sustainability.

With the arrival of February, we enter a time of reflection and appreciation for Black History Month. Originating during the challenging era of Jim Crow, this tradition received official recognition in 1976 as part of our nation's bicentennial celebrations. Its noble aim is to pay homage to the immense contributions and sacrifices made by African Americans. President Gerald Ford's call to honor the often overlooked accomplishments of Black Americans continues to resonate today. Let us unite in recognizing February as an opportunity for fostering greater understanding and empathy, as we delve into the rich tapestry of our shared history. #BlackHistoryMonth #WasteConnections

Kristina Shoefstall and Chesney Buesing in Duncan, OK, are outstanding Women of Waste! Their coworker said, "They have both been here for 10 years and understand and promote the Culture of Waste Connections. They regularly serve on the Safety Committee, keep the drivers on their toes and nurture an atmosphere of family at the district. Thank you, two Keepers of the Culture, for years of dedication and for making this a great place to work!"
