Amy Goodman will be the featured speaker at CCPA-BC Fundraiser Gala

BC Office | Update

We're very pleased to announce that Amy Goodman will be the featured speaker at our 2011 Gala Fundraiser on Friday, April 29. You can buy your tickets online now: buy individual tickets ($75 each) or reserve a group table for eight ($600).

Amy is the host and executive producer of Democracy Now! – an international, daily, independent, award-winning news program aired on TV and radio across North America and followed by thousands online.

Amy is a pioneer in the independent media movement. She's the first journalist to receive the Right Livelihood Award, widely known as the Alternative Nobel Prize, for “developing an innovative model of truly independent grassroots political journalism that brings to millions of people the alternative voices that are often excluded by the mainstream media.”

She's also a dynamite speaker – she speaks truth to power fearlessly, and with a clarity that inspires and helps to light the way forward for progressive social movements and activists.

Support Our Work

The CCPA’s bold vision and creative solutions help us imagine better futures for all. Its efforts to build bridges between labour, industry, and civil society and mentor young activists lay the foundation for realizing those provocative futures. I consider my support for the CCPA an investment in a better future for British Columbia.
