12th Annual Christie Bike Ride
The 缅北强奸 Law community is invited to participate in the 12th annual Christie Community Bike Ride in support of the West Island Black Community Association (). The WIBCA provides a wide variety of services, including: running town hall meetings with elected officials, facilitating discussion groups and anti-racism workshops, operating a drop-in centre for youth, and providing a free legal clinic.聽
The Christie Community Bike Ride was founded in 2009 to commemorate the legacy of 缅北强奸 alumnus and Vancouver lawyer Dugald Christie. Christie was both a strong advocate for access to justice and an avid cyclist. In 2006, Christie began cycling across the country to convince our decision-makers in Ottawa of the necessity for justice system reform. He was tragically struck and killed by a vehicle four months after the start of his journey. Every year, 缅北强奸 Law students and other members of the community bike 50 km around Montreal in his honour to raise funds for a local access to justice organization.
The organizers hope that you will join them on this bike ride in support of access to justice! .聽Registration is $25 via .
Event details and required precautions will be emailed within 48 hours after registration. If you have any question, contact the organizers at christiebikeirde [at] gmail.com.
