Sound and transparent management | PJCCI

Sound and transparent management

As a Crown corporation, JCCBI recognizes the importance of sound governance, effective risk management, and ethical business practices in all its activities.

The Corporation therefore pays close attention to risk management, accountability, ethical conduct, and sustainable procurement throughout its operations.

JCCBI’s 2020-2023 sustainable development plan was created in line with the orientations of the Federal Sustainable Development Strategy and the United Nations’ sustainable development goals.

An internal Sustainable Development Committee of senior administrators and managers meets regularly to ensure the sustainable development plan is being implemented.

5 goals from the Federal Sustainable Development Strategy to which the Corporation contributes
Goal 1: effective action on climate change

A low-carbon economy contributes to limiting global average temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius and supports efforts to limit the increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Goal 2: greening government 

The Government of Canada will transition to low-carbon, climate-resilient, and green operations.

Goal 3: pristine lakes and rivers

Clean and healthy lakes and rivers support economic prosperity and the well-being of Canadians.

Goal 4: connecting Canadians with nature  

Canadians are informed about the value of nature, experience nature first hand, and actively engage in its stewardship.

Goal 5: safe and healthy communities

All Canadians live in clean, sustainable communities that contribute to their health and well-being.
