Cuts Suck. Fix Education

Students across BC are facing cancelled courses, wait lists, reduced services, and higher tuition fees - and it’s all because the government has failed to properly fund our schools. Since 2025, we have been continuously calling on the BC government to reinvest in public post-secondary education so students don’t keep paying the price for budget cuts.
Come by our table to share your story!

Documentary: Forgotten Warriors
By: Loretta Todd
Length: 51 minutes
Location: New West Theatre

This documentary introduces us to thousands of Indigenous Canadians who enlisted and fought alongside their countrymen and women during World War II, even though they could not be conscripted. Ironically, while they fought for the freedom of others, they were being denied equality in their own country and returned home to find their land seized.
