Comments from our guests and members
Members and guests attending our weekly meetings are very important to us. Based on your comments we are able to produce many more educational, inspiring, and entertaining weekly meetings.
Following are some of the comments we have received. Would you please send us your comments?
-- David Werrett, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
December 13 – Plant-based diet. In Alberta, Canada, and in North America, we have a significant number of voters and activists that will need to be convinced that we need to change their habits.
December 22. After the heavy snow and the attraction of reach food for the holidays, the presentation on healthy heating was not that welcome. The positive side is that we will not need to be convinced to go back to healthy eating without feeling guilty.
December 29. Looking at the recycling army in Brazil, it might be a good consideration to increase the return price of recyclable cans and bottles. The price of cardboard is going up and the more we encourage the removal of recyclable waste, the cleaner our world will be. Now, can someone find a way to encourage the removal of disposable masks from our street?
-- Jean Michel Crepin, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
Plant-based diet. A wonderful and necessary education. Loved the Food for thought - we tend to be so quick to judge just by the cover, and often miss the richness that lies beneath. Good joke about Computer Gender. I would have said computers are female because they know everything!
-- Vicki Horsfield, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
Healthy Eating. We need to change how we eat to prevent chronic diseases. This will involve switching to a plant-based instead of dairy and meat. Exercise, exercise, and exercise...
-- Michael Thomas, Rotary Club of Stony Plain, District 5370

Conflict and violence displace millions of people each year. Half of those killed in conflict are children, and 90 percent are civilians.
We refuse to accept conflict as a way of life. Rotary projects provide training that fosters understanding and provides communities with the skills to resolve conflicts.
How Rotary makes help happen?
Through our service projects, peace fellowships, and scholarships, our members are taking action to address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, inequality, ethnic tension, lack of access to education, and unequal distribution of resources.
