DearPaov --

As of this morning, the proportional representation referendum turnout is 3.7%. Every single vote is important and the BC Health Coalition wants to encourage our members to mail in their ballots.

Are you able to make some calls to members to remind them that their vote is important in this referendum?

The BC Health Coalition has an online system that allows anyone around the province to be part of our Get Out The Vote efforts. If you want to be part of this historic opportunity to change our voting system to one where every vote counts, please send me an email and we can talk about how it works and set aside some time for training!

[evoz] Cafe Simpatico - November 30


Café Simpatico presents...

The Zapatista Movement in Chiapas

¡Zapata vive, la lucha sigue!”

(Zapata lives, the struggle continues!)

In 1994, the day the NAFTA agreement became operational, threatening the survival of Mexican campesinos, the Zapatista National Liberation Army staged a 12-day-long uprising. Mexican society shook to its core.

After 24 years of resistance, the Zapatistas remain well organized and continue to protect their Indigenous culture, their right to land and their autonomy. Please join us for a talk by Professor Gabriela Wieland McBee of the University of Victoria.

Music by:

Héctor Vázquez, classical musician from Mexico and PhD candidate at UVic.
