In TouchNewsletter for Bell retirees | Summer 2017, Vol. 17, No. 2

In the week leading up to Canada Day, Bell released a new TV ad that shows the important role our company has played in the country’s development.

Entitled “Connecting Canada,” the commercial traces the evolution of communications from Alexander Graham Bell’s invention of the telephone in 1876 to the present, highlighting more than a century of technological breakthroughs and Bell’s connection to key moments in Canadian history.

The commemorative ad aired on multiple channels leading up to Canada Day and is also available at YouTube.com/BellCanada.

Bell Media programming

Bell Media’s CTV delivered 2 live specials from Parliament Hill with Your Morning welcoming Prime Minister Trudeau and other special guests on June 30, and Canada’s #1 news anchor Lisa LaFlamme and the CTV News team bringing the July 1 celebrations in Ottawa live to viewers nationwide.

Bell Media’s crowd-sourced feature film Canada in a Day also aired on CTV on July 1 and is now available on demand on CraveTV. Created to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Confederation, the 2-hour special is based on the more than 10,000 videos shot by Canadians over a 24-hour period, providing a unique snapshot of life in our country.

Celebrations continue in Ottawa

As partner of Ottawa 2017, Bell is supporting year-long festivities in the nation’s capital in many ways. We developed the Ottawa 2017 mobile app, which includes activity information and interactive features to enhance on-site experiences, and we are providing free Wi-Fi at Inspiration Village, a collection of multimedia exhibits in the historic ByWard Market.

Bell is also providing the network technology that powers the Kontinuum multimedia experience at the Lyon Light Rail Transit Station. Running from July 16 to September 14, this unique activity presents an underground alternative reality of light and sound and lets visitors download holographic images of themselves journeying through time using the Ottawa 2017 app.

Meet a few of our partners.Bell has been an innovation leader in Québec and throughout Canada since our company was founded here in Montréal in 1880.

This is reflected in some key announcements we’ve made in recent months including the upcoming launch of our LTE-M network to support advances in Internet of Things applications, and the unveiling of our new Alt TV service for Fibe Internet customers that lets you watch full live broadcast TV without the need for a traditional TV receiver.

In March, Bell announced an $854 million investment to expand fibre to the home (FTTH) to a total of 1.1 million homes and businesses in Montréal. This major infrastructure project is supporting 2,700 new jobs and creating $2.2 billion in overall economic benefits in Québec.

Driven by our focus on service innovation, Bell works with small and medium technology businesses of all kind to design better products, offer customers unparalleled service and improve our efficiency. Beside, you can meet some of our partners in Québec and learn about the unique solutions we’ve developed together.

6 François Baron | President, Cafection

Bell worked with Cafection to develop an Internet of Things application to remotely monitor its network of office coffee machines in real time.

“Our partnership with Bell lends credibility to our coffee machines. People trust the service because it is supported by the Bell network.”

For the past 15 years, Nicole Côté has been spending a lot of time at pools without ever getting wet. While she is an athletic person, Nicole isn’t particularly fond of water. Her long-time favourite sport is actually downhill skiing. “I was a ski instructor for many years,” she notes.

It was her granddaughter, Cassidy-Nora, who introduced her to the world of diving. “I started taking her to the pool when she was 2 years old,” explains Nicole, who lives in Montréal’s West Island area. “That was shortly before I retired from my job with Bell Mobility as a client representative. Cassidy-Nora was so fascinated by the diving board that she wanted to jump off it before she even learned how to swim.”

From spectator to judge

At age 5, Cassidy-Nora qualified as a member of the Pointe-Claire diving team and shortly after that Nicole decided to take the training to become a judge. “Instead of going with my granddaughter to the pool and doing nothing, I figured I could combine the useful with the enjoyable.”

Training to become a judge, a voluntary position, is rigorous. In addition to learning theory, trainees shadow other judges to improve their skills. This involves

sitting next to a colleague judging a competition, watching the same dives and then comparing notes. “It all happens very quickly,” says Nicole, who is now a senior judge on the Québec circuit. “You need to stay alert and have a keen eye.”

Seeing future champions in action

Cassidy-Nora, who won several medals as a diver, now works as a flight attendant. “Even though my granddaughter no longer competes, I’m still involved in diving because I love it!” enthuses Nicole. “It’s exciting to see young divers improve from one competition to the next. I’ve had the chance to witness the development of some of Canada’s best divers including Émilie Heymans, Roseline Filion, Meaghan Benfeito, Jennifer Abel and François Imbeau-Dulac.”

So has watching young people dive inspired Nicole to try it herself? “I’ve never dived, but I’ve jumped from the 3 metre board twice,” she explains. “I was terrified, especially when I wound up at the bottom of the pool. That was enough for me!”

Nicole has very fond memories of serving as a judge at the Québec Games, which were held in her home town of Alma in February. “The atmosphere was extraordinary.”

During the Games, she was recognized for her long commitment to Plongeon Québec. “It really meant a lot to me,” she acknowledges.

It’s the camaraderie that brings out Loretta Didzbalis season after season to manage and keep score for the T-Ballers, a local women’s slowpitch team. “I’ve really gotten close with the team,” said Loretta, who worked in expense management at Bell for 32 years.

Young moms make up the majority of the T-Ballers and Loretta sees how being part of the team brings more benefits than just exercise. “It gets them out of the house and meeting new people. It gives moms a chance to have an adult conversation,” Loretta said, adding that some are on maternity leave. “For single moms,

it gives them a change of pace. If they bring the kids, usually there’s someone to help watch them.”

Getting together every spring is like a reunion. “For a lot of the teams, it’s the same ladies every year,” said Loretta, who has been with the T-Ballers for about 8 years. “Sometimes there’s so much conversation we forget who’s up at bat next!” Loretta has also worked to hone her slowpitch knowledge over the years, monitoring the capabilities of opposing teams and offering game advice and encouragement to T-Ballers on the field.

It’s a family affair

Loretta’s daughter Lori, 33, is a member of the T-Ballers and her son Ryan, 31, plays on another team. She has watched them grow up on softball diamonds. “I rarely miss any games. It keeps me involved with what they are interested in and I enjoy that.”

Loretta also keeps score for her son’s mixed slowpitch team and another team that her daughter plays on for weekend tournaments. Her sister, Rita Roy, also a Bell retiree, is involved with the team too, updating schedules and helping get the field ready on game day.

The importance of being a volunteer

Loretta also serves coffee and tea every morning, 7 days a week, at a nearby nursing home and volunteers at a seniors’ centre. She enjoys taking the time to hear people’s news and find out how they’re feeling. “I’ve always been one to get up early. I might as well be productive and do something that’s helping somebody.”

When people ask Loretta how she knows so many people, she points to the many friendships she has developed through her volunteer work and invites others to join in. “Every little bit helps. There’s a lack of volunteers out there to help out.”

Bell teams stepped up for youth mental health by participating in local walks, making donations and organizing grassroots fundraisers like chili lunches, silent auctions, card tournaments and sports challenges.

Funds raised through the Walk enable Kids Help Phone to continue providing essential counselling services and other resources to young Canadians by phone, online and on mobile devices.
