This event is in solidarity with the Treaty 8 First Nations and farmers who are losing their land to the Site C dam. Save the Peace River and our hydro bills from Site C!

Our featured speaker will be Helen Knott, an incredible poet and activist from Prophet River First Nation. We are honoured and thrilled to have Helen joining us! The rest of the afternoon will be a fun, family-friendly carnival.

There is a paddle for experienced paddlers leaving from Granville Island at 12 pm sharp and going to Vanier Park. You can rent kayaks from Ecomarine Paddlesports. Sign up to paddle here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FFBRFYN
