Peace Out (2011) – Feb. 8, 2012
Feb. 8th is the Awareness Film Night screening of “Peace Out”, a beautifully put together and dynamic film that explores the plans afoot for energy extraction in the vast Peace River region of B.C., including a mega dam, tens of thousands of hydro-fracked shale gas wells and a nuclear power plant.
The screening will be attended by Fabio Wilkinson, one of the filmmakers, local MLA John Horgan and award-winning investigative journalist and CCPA policy analyst Ben Parfitt, who will present a short power point on fracking in the Peace, what it is and what it does. Showtime is at 7:00 and the evening will adjourn at 9:30 rather than the usual 9:00 so that there will be time for discussion and questions from the audience for Fabio, Ben and John. Admission is by donation to the Peace Valley Environment Association.
This film will not be in the Awareness Film Night library after the screening, so come out and see it on the big screen and be there for the discussion.
