Reinstatement of Gaming Grant Funding to Non-profit Groups

WHEREAS the Province of British Columbia has historically funded non-profit groups through the proceeds obtained through gaming and a recent Cabinet decision has been made to eliminate this funding for adult groups; AND WHEREAS non-profit groups across British Columbia contribute significantly to environmental, sporting, arts, cultural and community initiatives, and these contributions will be greatly diminished due to the removal of gaming grant funding: THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Province of British Columbia be requested to reinstate gaming grant funding to adult non-profit groups.
