Political involvement and contributions
We support the democratic system in Canada by contributing to registered political parties. Strict guidelines govern these contributions. Only the chief executive officer is authorized to make political contributions, and these must be within legal limits and approved by the Board of Directors. In 2006, Imperial’s political contributions to provincial parties totalled $29,000 and were not limited to a single political party. We did not contribute to federal political parties, respecting government requirements that prohibit corporations from such contributions.
