Policy review committee (PRC) records

Files in this subseries reflect the functions and activities of the Policy Review Committee (PRC) of the BC NDP, including its various policy subcommittees and committee liaisons.

The PRC functions as an aggregate body, composed of policy subcommittees formed by a motion of the Provincial Council to review and/or develop policies for the Party around a particular issue or topic. Policy subcommittees could be formed to respond to specific areas where a Party policy response was required immediately, or they could exist as standing subcommittees, as was often the case. Membership in any subcommittee is open to Party members in good standing, and committee membership is re-established on an annual basis. Each subcommittee has a Chair (or two Co-Chairs), and the Policy Review Committee is composed of all chairs of the policy subcommittees. Standing subcommittees have included: Advanced education, Agriculture, Economic, Education, Gay & Lesbian Rights, Health, Housing, Justice & legal affairs, Labour, Human Rights & Anti-racism, Social services, Tourism & cultural affairs, Transportation, and so forth. In many years, a representative of the Young New Democratics (YND) and a representative of the Women's Rights Committee (WRC) would also act as liaising members of the PRC. Policy subcommittees would review old policy, develop new policy as either resolutions for Convention or as Party policy statements, prepare background and/or discussion papers on relevant issues, and promote internal awareness and education about issues relevant to the Party. Finally, the PRC itself would often act in an advisory capacity to the Strategy & Election Planning Committee (SEPC) and the Elections Platform Committee (EPC) during the campaign period of of provincial elections.

Files in this subseries include materials from both the PRC itself, as well as records of its various subcommittees. Items covered include meeting minutes and agenda, memos and notices, background and discussion papers, media clippings, handwritten notes, drafts, public communications, policy documents and proposals, resolutions, and other related materials.

Photographs by Hanne Wassermann Walker

Subseries consists of photographs, negatives, and associated materials (envelopes, metadata papers), most of which were created by Hanne. These images document aspects of her life in Europe prior to immigrating to the United States and eventually Canada. There are photographs from her travels in Austria, France, Italy, and other countries, which reveal an interest in hiking, landscape photography, and architecture. There are also many photographs taken of Hanne’s friends, family, and even an apparent boyfriend/lover with whom she travelled extensively in the 1920s and 1930s. After arriving in North America, Hanne’s photos capture her life with husband George Walker — their hiking trips, the home they made for themselves in Vancouver, the many dogs they owned and loved over the years, and their friends and family in North America. Hanne’s interest (not to mention her education as a young woman) in portrait photography is also reflected in this subseries through the many pictures taken of herself, George, and the members of several local families, including the Koerners. Hanne also photographed the many sculptures she produced while living in Vancouver — sculptures which are not part of this fonds and are likely impossible to ever locate/recover.
