Take Action!

.

Fill out the BC Hydro survey.

.
The survey is mostly junk: it asks if you would like to boat on a lake or river, or example. But there is some space for real feedback, and in each “other” comment space, you can write about why you do not want Site C to happen. (P.S. dependable energy is code for large-scale hydro.) Take the survey.
.

Write an email or letter to the powers that be.

.
Write the following people a letter to say NO to Site C! Make sure you readdress the letter to each recipient, and send it to all! (Sample letter here.)
