INVOLVEMENT For 2009, Subaru Canada was the presenting sponsor of the inaugural Shinsedai Cinema Festival, which took place from August 21-23 at the Japanese Cultural Centre in Toronto, Ontario. As the presenting sponsor, Subaru Canada was extremely proud to recognize its Japanese heritage by supporting the wide range of young talent that’s part of this “new generation” Japanese film festival. The festival celebrated some of the best new feature and short films from young, independent Japanese filmmakers. After three days, 12 screenings and 24 Japanese films, the first Shinsedai Cinema Festival was such a success that plans are already underway for 2010. The festival is set to take place from July 22-25, 2010, and promises to be bigger and bolder than before. Go to www.shinsedai-fest.com to find out more. For the past three years, Subaru Canada has partnered with our local community by participating with the City of Mississauga’s LitterNot Program. The LitterNot campaign was established as a way for environmentally conscious citizens to make a personal contribution to a cleaner environment. As part of this program, Subaru Canada has adopted a 2.5-km stretch of municipal road in our neighbourhood. At least three times per year, Subaru employees venture out and collect bags of discarded garbage within the designated area. Programs such as the Mississauga LitterNot campaign allow Subaru Canada to show our dedication to creating a cleaner environment – both through our daily operations and through initiatives such as this one.
