SAMPLE PHONE SCRIPT

Hi, my name is ____________, and I'm calling with some questions about RBC's environmental practices. May I please speak with a manager?

Thank you for your time. Briefly, I want to ask about RBC's commitment to the environment. Especially clean water.

Last month, your CEO, Gord Nixon promised to consider a trip to a community affected by the tar sands. Toxic pollution from the tar sands is one of Canada's biggest threats to clean water, yet RBC provides more financing to tar sands developers than any other bank.

Clean water is a top priority for RBC, so it should definitely be a top priority for your CEO.

Will you to contact Mr. Nixon's office and ask him to support his promise to visit the tar sands before next year's shareholder meeting?
