2007 Conference on Canadian Stewardship About Us
 

The Conference on Canadian Stewardship is a cooperative effort between many of the leading stewardship organizations of Canada. These organizations currently operate stewardship programs dealing with tires, paint, non-alcoholic beverage containers, beer containers, electronics, packaging and printed materials and household special waste materials. A full listing of the organizations that have been participating in discussions in creating the Conference on Canadian Stewardship a meeting where those that manages stewardship programs, and those companies that pay for the costs of stewardship have a forum for working together
