What an exciting year it has been for the BCSEA Team!
We have made great progress this month towards creating a clean, renewable energy future for British Columbia, Canada, and the world - the Paris Agreement signed last week is a clear sign that individuals and governments are ready for change - and we could not have done it without the passion and dedication of our supporters. Thank you!
Many of our constituents have rallied...
We're half way there!

Dear Paov
Folks like you, who support Canadian public health,
are an incredible group of people.
Already, we've raised half
of what we need to get to Ottawa to meet with the new
government in January. Can you help us raise the second half, so we
can make sure BC is represented during these important first meetings
with the new MPs?
Even a few dollars makes a difference.
Click
here to donate to make sure B.C. is at the table when public health
leaders meet with Canada’s new health minister.
Thank you and happy holidays!
Rick Turner, BC Health Coalition co-chair
P.S.
There is more information about the meetings with the health minister
in the email we sent last week....

In the early nineteenth century, Cuba is a Spanish colony and a slave society in which labour has been kidnapped in African lands and sold like cattle to the Spanish and Creole landowners. The ideals of emancipation, enlightenment and the French and American revolutions have also reached the Caribbean. In the midst of this environment of inconsistencies, enigmas, dreams and endless tragedies, Ursula, a freed slave woman from Haiti, and Cornelio, a German merchant, star in a love story that created the hope of living in a better world bravely brought to fruition in the richest coffee plantation in Cuba: Angerona.

This year CAIA has an opportunity to have an information table at the Courtenay Film Festival on Saturday, February 6.
The idea would be to have 2 of our members at the table from 9am till around 5pm. If there are enough of us who could be at the table we could have a few shifts so that all of us could also see a few documentaries.
The Courtenay Film Festival has been around for many years. They show some of the best made Social Justice Documentaries. They get around 1,500 attendees each year. They have three venues where they show films and they have a bazaar area at their central location where numerous organizations are able to have tables with their information.
If there are enough of us to have a table we can organize a car pool so we can travel...
