About Give A Honk:
• Give A Honk is Petro-Canada’s national campaign to shine a spotlight on family
caregivers, the more than eight million Canadians who provide care and support for
loved ones in need.
• The campaign supports the Petro-Canada CareMakers Foundation and the
organizations that help family caregivers across the country

Why the Goose:
• The Give A Honk’ campaign mascot, The Goose is back at Petro-Canada. Just like last
year, the Goose is cheeky, confident, fiercely proud to be Canadian, and a natural family
caregiver. The Goose is loyal, protective, and passionate about supporting family
caregivers.
• Petro-Canada chose Wawa, as the home one of Canada's most recognizable roadside
landmarks for the launch of this national campaign to generate community excitement
and drive awareness for family caregivers nationwide.
• Petro-Canada partnered with the Municipality of Wawa and worked closely with the
company behind the Wawa Goose’s reconstruction in 2017, to bring this installation to
life for the month of September.

How People Can Get Involved:
• Between September 1 and October 5, Canadians can visit Petro-Canada locations and
and get their Goose Keychain and Petro-Canada will donate $3 to the CareMakers
Foundation. Only $1 + applicable taxes with 25L fuel purchase, while supplies last.
