More than 800 employees at Canadian Pacific Railway have collected and recycled more than 100,000 plastic water bottles in support of the Children’s Wish Foundation. Over the past year plastic water bottles have been collected at CPR employee locations in Moose Jaw, Regina, Swift Current and other cities across Saskatchewan. About $10,000 was raised by the recycling effort.
