Welcome to the website of the Vancouver-Burnaby Chapter of the Council of Canadians.

The Council of Canadians is a citizens group that is dedicated to protecting Canadian independence and to building a stronger civil society and a better world. It consists of both a central organization, with a board and staff, and a nation-wide network of over 70 local chapters. The chapters are made up of members who volunteer their time and energy to support national campaigns.

The Vancouver chapter is a small but active group. Our members come from a variety of backgrounds: they include office workers, medical professionals, educators, artists, and business people. Whatever our backgrounds, the things that unite us are our belief in social justice, our determination to protect Canada's independence, and our desire to make our country even better.

If the Council's campaigns interest you, please get in touch by e-mailing us (see the 'Contact Us' section for our e-mail address). We can always use more help! You can join the chapter at whatever level of commitment your schedule and aptitudes allow. And anyone is welcome to attend one of our meetings in order to get a better sense of what we're about.

We generally meet from January to June and from September to November, on the third Wednesday of the month (although there are occasionally changes, so you should always check the Events Calendar). Regular meetings are held at 7:30 pm. at Holy Trinity Church, 1440 West 12th Ave.
