Description

March 27 Vancouver LIL sought funding for a slide and tape educational program aimed at dispelling prejudice against lesbians. Initial promises of support from the Secretary of State's office and the British Columbia Human Rights Commission collapsed. On March 27, 1981, the commission passed a motion to support the project for the entire budget ($7,500) but was unable to get final approval from the minister before March 31, 1981, the end of the fiscal year; the new budget did not include funds to support the project.
