A Pivot in Canada That Helps Companies Promote Sustainability Practices
May 05, 2021
Leading business leaders and policymakers have traditionally led the case to pivot and integrate sustainability across business practices. These conversations have usually targeted large corporations and neglect small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) in many countries, including Canada.
At least, that’s according to the organizers of Montreal-based PIVOT. In conjunction with McGill University and the National Film Board of Canada, PIVOT shares stories of Canadian SMEs across the country that are embracing sustainable practices. SMEs account for closely 90 percent of Canada’s total private labor force and employ 10.8 million people.

Of course, given the irrational number that Pi is, it’s not surprising the day is more frequently used as an excuse to bake and eat pies. Even at the very first Pi Day in 1988, organized by San Francisco Exploratorium physicist Larry Shaw, participants ate fruit pies after doing a circular march.
