POSTPONED!
We regularly support the local chapter of Dying With Dignity in Edmonton, and wanted to give a heads up that their meeting next week has been postponed. (not updated on their facebook page as of yet, but an email was sent)

The demographic that head to these meetings are generally in the higher risk categories already, so they felt it prudent to cancel the event for now in light of the recent health situation.

Turns out Edmonton Comic Expo is also this weekend and a whole bunch of our regular volunteers are attending that on Saturday.

We’ll cancel the Saturday event, in favour of a whole bunch of us showing up on Sunday to clean.   Please join us on Sunday, and if you need a ride, feel free to ask!

Board member Tina put together some resources for us, in order to encourage the city, province and federal governments to ban conversion therapy.   Feel free to download these letter templates to use as is, or edit to make it feel more personal.

You can find local MP’s at this webpage:

Also, remember that Federal Government mail can be sent free of charge.

Letters for Banning Conversion Therapy 

This year, Karen is unable to host her annual New Year’s Eve games night.

Board member Margaret has stepped up and is happy to have the get together at her place instead.   Cards Against Humanity, as always, will feature.

If you are interested in dropping by please contact us at president@edmontonatheists.ca, or on our facebook page using the message box in order to get her address.

Happy New Year!

Some conflicts with the group out in Stony Plain and the original date of December 14th, so please note that this meeting has changed to December 7th.
