CALGARY, Nov. 22, 2021 - Parkland Corporation ("Parkland", "we", the "Company", or "our") today announced it will donate $100,000 to the Canadian Red Cross' British Columbia (BC) floods and extreme weather response efforts. Funds will be used to carry out relief, recovery, resiliency and risk reduction activities.
