What are the burning issues?

Come and help us open a new season of thought-provoking presentations!

As the Southern Alberta Council on Public Affairs begins a new year, we would like to consult with you, the community, about the burning issues that face our community, province and nation.

What makes your short list of urgent issues someone should deal with or talk about?

We have invited three bright and thoughtful people to each speak briefly about pending issues as they see them, and to help us think in fresh ways about these matters.

Gordon Campbell – a long time leader and thinker in SACPA and in this community; former university educator and global social activist.

Peter Deys – Global TV station manager in this city and an award-winning journalist, with media experience in Edmonton & Medicine hat before coming to Lethbridge in 1998.

Tim Thiessen – pastor at College Drive Church, transplanted Winnipegger. Three years in Lethbridge, Tim is married with 3 grown daughters and has been to Africa 7 times.
