CAPE

New Directions: Advocacy and citizenship

The duties of a Canadian citizen include obeying the law; taking responsibility for oneself and one’s family; serving on a jury; voting in elections; helping others in the community and protecting and enjoying our heritage and environment. These also require us put our country ahead of self-interest and CAPE and its member are doing this through the implementation of ‘From Canadian First to Canada First’ - a multi-stakeholder employment strategy for immigrants with engineering backgrounds.

  • As committed citizens, CAPE members are prepared to use their resources and all available democratic means to make their voice heard, create a responsible community, enhance the mobility of engineers within and outside Canada, and make Canada a world leader in engineering innovation.
  • As part of its commitment to good citizenship, CAPE will set up an advocacy task force and strive to develop an official Citizenship and Advocacy Plan during 2010-2011.

CAPE will build its advocacy platform around these themes.
