The HERITAGE CANADA Foundation was founded in 1973 to protect and promote this country's built, natural, historic and scenic heritage. Heritage Canada's role is to foster and ensure the understanding, protection and sustainable evolution of the cultural landscape, in particular of the architectural heritage of that landscape. Why the Heritage Canada Foundation? Our history, our communities, our built and natural environments, our cultures: These are the things that make this country special and help to make us who we are. The face of Canada is changing daily. That is why we must recognize our heritage places and use them wisely. We are the guardians of heritage for tomorrow. That is why Heritage Canada invites you to join us now in protecting Canada's heritage.

"No man is an island", and neither is MEC. To view MEC as only a source of gear would be to miss out on a set of ideals and convictions that are the driving force behind the Co-op. For over 25 years, MEC has been a feature in the Canadian landscape, part of expeditions, trips, community education, and environmental triumphs. Being a member of MOUNTAIN EQUIPMENT CO-OP is a source of pride for many, belonging to an organization with a history and a future of ethical, responsible behaviour in all aspects of business and the community. MEC exists in a symbiotic relationship with the community, you are MEC, and MEC is you.
