Join the movement opposed to the senseless and brutal trophy hunting of grizzlies in B.C with Justice for BC Grizzlies. Next Saturday, April 1st, there will be a rally at the B.C. Legislature to raise awareness of this issue and send a message to MLA's that this issue matters to the people of B.C.when they go to vote on May 9th.

Families all over B.C. who rent are often faced with the horrendous decision between finding affordable housing or giving up a loved family member who is a pet, because of "no pet" legislation.
Pets OK BC has been working hard to raise awareness of this issue and how many people and pets it effects. They are teaming up with the The Mustard Seed Street Church to raise host a town hall discussion on this issue, so that progress can be made towards a solution. If you live in or around Victoria, please attend and share your experience.

Vegtoria! Victoria's Veg Fest 2017 is on the way and we can't wait to celebrate with all of you this summer! While having fun and celebrating the awesome growing vegan community is exciting, we also want to remember this is all about the animals. We do it for them, because we don't need to exploit and abuse them to live healthy, happy, and meaningful lives. Theo, from RASTA Sanctuary, was rescued after being left for dead by the dairy industry. Now he's 3,000lbs! #govegan #yyj #ditchdairy #cowsmilkisforbabycows

Victoria National Animal Rights Day (NARD), 2017 is happening this June 4th! Are you going to represent the interests of other animals with dozens of other activists in the community? RSVP on the event page, if you don't have a shirt yet, you'll need to let them know in advance.

Is eating less animal products really a smarter choice? Yes.
No one is perfect, but that doesn't mean that we can't do as much as we reasonably can. #govegan #today #rightnow #video #vegan #watch #learn #fortheanimals #youcandoit #makeadifference
