Updates from Camp and Direct Support for Lytton Fire Survivors
This summer has been rough. As communities across so called Canada and the world grapple with the direct evidence of genocide being shown in the media every day communities are also being subjected to climate disasters like the recent heatwave and the fire that tragically burned down the town of Lytton.
Resistance to the Coastal Gas Link pipeline continues on the territory and the Unist'ot'en healing lodge is fulfilling its mission of serving the Wet'suwet'en community. Across turtle island people are showing up in resistance and care tearing down the statues of racist colonizers, asserting sovereignty over Indigenous territory, and doing mutual aid and healing work to support each other through these crises.
If you're in a position to donate to support displaced Nlaka'pumux families who were impacted by the devastating Lytton fire please do so today. Details below.

Longtime CASC activist and volunteer Bev Wood passed away on Sunday, July 4, 2021, just 2 weeks after her 91st birthday. Bev's family asked we share news of her death with CASC friends and supporters. Thanks to John Hillian for this tribute to Bev Wood.
BEV WOOD
Bev was very prominent in the early history of CASC, consistently and faithfully attending regular meetings and special events organized in response to the terrible events of the day. She was excited by, and became good friends and promoters of the Guatemalan folk group Kin Lalat when they visited in the 80's. To deepen her understanding, Bev spent a month in Nicaragua in 1985 with the Witness for Justice and Peace program sponsored by the Christian Task Force on Central America. Motivated by her strong Christian faith, she was an active member of St. Saviour's Anglican church in Esquimalt, she relayed the news of events in Central America and the local work of CASC to the congregation. Once Cafe Simpatico started, Bev took on the role of organizing the volunteers to run the coffee house. It was a position she capably held for many years, and, as Tim says, "always with a...

- Written by editor
Thank you, Chief Jeff Jones, for your request asking the Rainforest Flying Squad to vacate the area during fire season. We share your concerns during this time of extreme temperatures and the prolonged drought. We want to ensure both the forest and our people are fully protected.Please be assured that once we receive notice that Teal Jones has stood down from active logging and road building for the fire season and that the RCMP are refraining from enforcement procedures in the area, we too, will reduce our presence in Pacheedaht unceded territory. We are now strategizing to streamline our camps and reduce our ground crews to a minimal presence, enough to keep watch on both the forest and the camps. We will maintain this minimal presence until Teal Jones returns once again to the forests to clear-cut them at the earliest opportunity. We will take every precaution with regard to fire prevention. We are developing a Wildfire Protocol, which will ban all campfires, reduce the opportunity for sparks and ensure we have the appropriate fire fighting equipment at hand. We are also consulting with the local fire chief to gain his advice and...

Your monthly update from the BC Health Coalition
UPDATE The attack on our public health care in the Cambie case
In September 2020, the BC Supreme Court dealt a strong blow to the efforts of Dr. Brian Day and others to undermine Canada’s public health care system.
Despite our win, we have been dragged back into the courts by Dr. Day and his supporters as they appeal the previous decision. Earlier this month, we listened to the BC Court of Appeal’s hearing for the Cambie case.
Appellate courts look at potential errors in how the law was applied in the trial judge’s verdict. The appellants [led by Cambie Surgeries Corporation], however, attempted to re-try some of their arguments by presenting just a small cherry-picked selection of the evidence heard at trial. Read the full summary of what we heard at the trial Read more: State of BC Health - June 2021
