Hi PAOV,
BCSEA is passionate about providing opportunities to gather, and to learn how to uncover innovative ways of looking at BC's sustainable energy challenges. Our annual conference, Energy Connections, does just that.
Last year, Energy Connections 2017 received great feedback from attendees. They said it was an important opportunity to gain informative insights for building communities of action to tackle issues and to explore solutions that ensure sustainable energy in BC. We invite you to read about it in the Energy Connections 2017 Summary Report.
We wrapped up Energy Connections 2017 with a survey asking delegates for the top transportation issues on the horizon, and it seems there is a lot of ground to cover! This year, Energy Connections 2018 will examine clean transportation. With innovations in technology and a strong push for a...

Support the urban Indigenous led fight against colonialism and homelessness at Saanich tent city
Canada’s housing crisis exposes and carries on colonial legacies by disproportionately impacting Indigenous people in Canada. In rural settings and urban centres, Indigenous people experience overcrowding and illness from poorly constructed homes, and racism and discrimination when seeking and maintaining housing. Over half of the population of Indigenous people in Canada live in urban centres, and in the nation’s major cities, Indigenous people make up between 30-50% of the homeless population. In the sixth major tent city to pop up in BC in under 3 years, Chrissy Brett, a Nuxalk woman and camp founder, leads a political fight against colonial dispossession and capitalist...
