Over the course of 2016, the BCCPA undertook a number of key events and initiatives that were only made possible through the generous support of our corporate sponsors. We want to take a moment to recognize them for partnering with us this year and helping to make this year such a big success!
Care to Chat
A special shout out goes to Rexall Health Solutions for once again stepping up and becoming the Title Sponsor for our popular Care to Chat speaker series. In particular, we want to thank Norman Hertzman and Ron Villanueva for seeing the value in these important sessions which have touched upon so many interesting topics over the last four years!
Our other sponsors include:
- Medical Pharmacies – Gold
- Justice Institute of BC – Silver
- Masters of Health Leadership and Policy – UBC – Silver
39th Annual Conference
Well in excess of 400 people attended our Annual Conference up in Whistler making it the largest in our history. We want to thank Angel Accessibility Solutions for reaching out to us and agreeing to take on the role as Title Sponsor. In particular, we want to thank Chris Swift and Phil Marmina for their active participation on our Conference Committee and for their generous support. Once again, we couldn’t have pulled off the conference without Angel Accessibility and an amazing list of corporate sponsors which are listed below.

Continuing Care Collaborative
In September, we held the inaugural Continuing Care Collaborative. Over 140 people from across British Columbia gathered at the Wosk Centre for Dialogue in Vancouver to discuss the future of seniors care. This event would not have been possible without the generous support of McKesson Canada who agreed to sponsor both the working session and reception. A special thanks to George Attar, Anthony Leong, & Alain Guez for helping to bring the Continuing Care Collaborative to life!
