Organization Information

B.C. Civil Liberties Association  
The BC Civil Liberties Association was established in 1962 and is the oldest and most active civil liberties group in Canada. We are funded by the Law Foundation of B.C. and by citizens who believe in what we do. The BCCLA is an autonomous, non-partisan charitable society. Though we strive to work cooperatively with other groups on common causes, we are unaffiliated with any other organization or political group including the Toronto-based Canadian Civil Liberties Association. Our independence has been one of the BCCLA's enduring strengths for over 40 years. Community Education Program Informed and vigilant citizens are the key to protecting fundamental rights and freedoms. The BCCLA provides publications and leaflets on a range of topics at no charge to the public. These include the Privacy Handbook, Rights Talk, The Arrest Handbook, Police Complaints, Drug Testing in the Workplace, and the Citizenship Handbook offered in various languages to engage immigrants and students. We offer a Speakers Bureau in which our staff and board members talk to students and community groups and we hold public events about civil liberties and human rights. Advocacy in Action Program We provide direct assistance to individuals who request information or have complaints about civil liberties violations by government agencies, employers and other organisations. We do all of this at no charge to the public. Common areas of work include police and privacy complaints, access to and protection of personal information, free speech and anti-oppression. While the BCCLA helps a diverse range of people, from citizens to businesses to other community agencies, complainants are frequently burdened with poverty, homelessness, addiction, discrimination, and physical or mental disabilities that limit their ability to self-advocate. Public Policy Program Over the years, the BCCLA has developed over 200 policy briefs, which serve as the principled cornerstones for our work. We meet with government and private sector officials to persuade them to change laws or policies that infringe on civil liberties and to develop new laws and policies that protect fundamental rights and freedoms. For example, our efforts have included playing a major role in advocating for human rights legislation, access-to-information and privacy legislation, while also resisting the more draconian anti-terrorism provisions. We are currently working to reform systems for accountability when there is a death of a citizen in police custody to ensure that civilians are responsible for investigating these deaths rather than police. Justice Program When all else fails, the BCCLA stands poised to challenge laws in the courts and over the years we have attracted the resources and pro bono legal talents to be successful at this. Since our inception, the BCCLA has always fought to preserve freedom of expression in Canada through strategic litigation, such as opposing book bans.
