  • BC Veterinarians Need Your Help Combined
    Hello If you wish to help BC veterinarians address the shortage of veterinarians, you may wish to write your local MLA and ask them to support and increase to the number of BC students trained as veterinarians. Below is a sample email for you to send to your local MLA. You can also add to the email or replace it with your own. After the sample email, on page 2 and 3, is a list of all MLA email addresses to help you to find your MLA contact information. Should you wish to learn more about the shortage of veterinarians and the need for additional BC students to be trained as veterinarians, please scroll down to page 4 to read our summary document. Your help is greatly appreciated! Dear MLA, I wish to add my name to the list of British Columbians who find the shortage of veterinarians in BC unacceptable. We understand that BC can add an additional 20 BC student seats to BC’s regional veterinary college, but that the government declined to do so, citing costs. In the interest of animal health and welfare issues including relief from suffering and unnecessary death, public health, and biosecurity for BC, we ask you to ask the Minister of Advanced Education Anne Kang to fund an additional 20 BC seats at WCVM effective immediately. As a BC resident, I want my voice added as an individual who cares about the health and welfare of animals and who wishes the government to provide funding to help alleviate the shortage of veterinarians in BC.

    Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans in Canada BRITISH COLUMBIA COMMAND Phone: 604-874-8105 200-951 East 8th Avenue Fax: 604-874-0633 Vancouver, B.C. Email: [email protected] V5T 4L2 June 3, 2021 Mr. Bruce Banman M.L.A and Mr. Mike de Jong M.L.A I write to you today in response to the Premier of British Columbia’s recent announcement that the BC Government will be providing new relief funding to the Legions of BC. As Vice President of BC Command for the Army, Navy & Air Force Veterans in Canada (ANAVETS) I am disheartened that we were not included in this funding. As an Association that has been around since Queen Victoria gave a charter in 1840, making us Canada’s oldest Veteran’s Association we find it inequitable that we have been left out of receiving vital funds to help keep our Units open. ANAVETS in British Columbia have 16 Units across the Province with almost 2500 Members and 64 Units across Canada. Since the start of the pandemic, our Units have been closed for over 6 months. Our Units are not only a place for Veterans, seniors and others to come for a drink and dinner, but for most of our members it is a place where they can meet their friends, and have a social outing. For many, our Units are the only place where they can be with other people. While our Units have been able to apply for and receive funding from the Federal Government, support from our Provincial Government would certainly help.
