Regardless of geographic location, our communities are formed by the individual day-to-day choices we all make. Whether it's joining the high school computer club or sports team, supporting an environmental group or politician, moving to a new housing project, choosing a school for our children, or joining a local church group, our individual actions help define the communities in which we live.
Many of our decisions to live more sustainably are shaped by the community resources available to us such as public transit, access to shops and restaurants, water and sewer, friends and family, health care, schools, services for seniors, and recreational opportunities. But do we define communities or do they define us?
If you are a Canadian resident and can spare a few minutes, please consider completing the online Community Liveability Survey at http://www.survey.crcresearch.org/index.php?sid=2 . Your responses could well help shape the world you leave to your children and grandchildren.
Five randomly chosen respondents will win an Apple iPod shuffle®. Your response is CONFIDENTIAL. You will only be asked to identify yourself if you wish to register to win the Apple iPod shuffle® and you will not be contacted by anyone unless you win.
If you have questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail Chris Ling at chris.ling@royalroads.ca and PLEASE feel free to share this Survey link with ALL your friends, family and colleagues.
