Advocacy

YWCA Metro Vancouver entwines advocacy with its social and community services, programming, and other functions. Advocacy emerged as a distinct function of YWCA Metro Vancouver in the 1960s, as the organization began to involve itself more vocally with social issues and public affairs relevant to its services. YWCA Metro Vancouver began allocating committees to coordination of social issues within the organization in the early 1970s. After the YWCA of Canada disseminated its Social Action Platform in 1971, YWCA Metro Vancouver formed a Social Concerns Committee that operated from 1972 to the late 1970s. This committee coordinated social concerns for the YWCA by undertaking studies for the Board of Directors, planning programs and newsletter pieces pertinent to contemporary social issues, and generally encouraging groups within the organization to become socially involved. In 1980, the Social Issues Committee was created to survey members on contemporary social issues. As a result of that survey, in 1982 the Social Action Committee formed as a committee of the YWCA Board of Directors to provide a stronger central coordinating function for social issues. The committee studied, researched, and monitored issues; collected background material relevant to those issues; formulated policy statements; gave advice to the Board and staff on social action; and regularly identified and reassessed priority issues to membership. The Social Action Committee was discontinued in 1995. YWCA Metro Vancouver YWCA has involved itself in advocacy via these committees, task forces on Board-identified and prioritized social issues, and collaboration with other advocacy-based and community service groups in Vancouver.

Material in this series arises from the business of the Social Concerns, Social Issues, and Social Action Committees; task forces struck by the Board of Directors to research and report on issues identified as of priority concern; and collaboration on women’s issues between YWCA Metro Vancouver and other advocacy-based and community service groups in Vancouver.

Records consist of reports, meeting minutes, reference material, memoranda, correspondence, media clippings, and other material arising from YWCA Metro Vancouver’s involvement in contemporary social issues as identified by the organization.

Advocacy

Advocacy and Bargaining

The series contains records pertaining to the AUCE’s efforts to advocate for their members and bargain as a collective unit. Record types include agendas, minutes, and dockets of the Annual Conventions and Special Conventions held by AUCE, agenda and minutes of the meetings of the General Membership, contracts documenting the collective agreements between the workers and employers, and records of conferences, strikes, working conditions, news releases, as well as training records on stewardship, bargaining, striking and picketing.
While many of the records relate directly to equal pay, increased benefits, and cost-of-living increases, the advocacy and bargaining efforts of the union also changed in response to the changing provincial government and University of British Columbia administrative measures.
With the 1983 election and the introduction of the Social Credit Government, the union worked with other labor organizations throughout the province, forming the province-wide Solidarity Coalition to resist the conservative measures being proposed through legislation. The records also reflect the related efforts to defeat Bill 19, introduced by Bill Vander Zalm in 1987, which directly affected labour unions and their right to strike.
The union also directly opposed choices made by the UBC administration including a decision to bring in Ritchie & Associates, a management consulting firm to assess efficiency in the workplace, as well as budget cut-backs. This resulted in the formation of the UBC. Campus Community Alliance. These and other specific efforts are documented in the series.

Advocacy and Indian/South Asian Issues

Series contains records related to Ujjal Dosanjh’s lifelong activism and advocacy for human rights, social justice, and Indian community issues. Topics touched upon in personal writings and correspondence address the struggle and exploitation of farm workers in Canada, an absence of immigrant services, death penalty opposition, anti-violence petitions, English as a second language challenges, racism, and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Advocacy for Indian and Indo-Canadian issues relate to the Foreign Exchange Regulations Act of 1973, the Komagata Maru incident, the Bombing of Air India Flight 182, and the Khalistan movement. Records relating to Dosanjh’s involvement in Komagata Maru Foundation of Canada encompasses press releases, meeting minutes, incorporation documents, correspondence and other materials. His participation in the Government of Canada’s inquiry into the investigation of the bombing of Air India Flight 182 is referenced by transcripts, personal notes, and correspondence. Early 1980s correspondence with Indira Ghandi is noteworthy and convers foreign exchange regulations for Indians living abroad, religious violence, and state policy regarding regional instability.

A significant portion of the series relates to the Sikh Khalistan movement. Worthy of attention are writings and correspondence addressing the 1984 attack on the Sikhs holy site, the Golden Temple, and the assassination of Indian Prime Minister Indira Ghandi. Dosanjh’s call for calm; rejection of extremism, communal violence, fundamentalism, and religious fanaticism; are described in many public press statements, hand written notes, published articles, and correspondence. Positive support regarding his moderate position are particularly evident in the numerous sympathy cards and messages he received in the aftermath of his 1985 assault and following his 2007 testimony at the Bombing of Air India Flight 182 inquiry. Conversely, confrontation opinions of Mr. Dosanjh from within the Sikh community are found in records of threats, and defamation lawsuits. An anonymous letter received by Dosanhj’s wife stating, “We know how to shut him up, you tell him,” is included in the series. Two defamation lawsuits, one against Dosanjh and one brought forth by Dosanjh, are available. In the first, the World Sikh Organizations brought suit against Mr. Dosanjh and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) regarding comments made on the television program The National, which linked the WSO to violent Sikh separatists responsible for the bombing of Air India Flight 182 and the assignation of Indira Ghandi. Press statements, court proceeding records, statement of claim and litigation documents, police reports, contemporary news reports, and correspondence document the matter. In the second defamation case, Dosanjh brought suit against South Asian newspaper The Link and its editor for making false statements about his character. Correspondence and a copy of the published apology have been filed.
