Petition addressed to: Vancouver School Board VSB Trustees Superintendent / District Leadership Ministry of Education and Child Care, British Columbia

Parents, students, stake holders & friends of Britannia Hockey Academy call on the Vancouver School Board and the B.C. Ministry of Education and Child Care to pause the suspension of the Britannia Hockey Academy for the 2026–2027 school year and give the Britannia community one fair year to rebuild awareness, enrollment and support.

Reason

The Britannia Hockey Academy has been suspended for the 2026–2027 school year after families were notified far too late to help rebuild enrollment. We are asking the Vancouver School Board and the B.C. Ministry of Education and Child Care for a one-year pause so parents, students, alumni, minor hockey associations and community partners can work together to save this important East Vancouver program.

Thank you so much for your support, Jason Del Vicario, Vancouver

Why people sign

Programs like these are so important for the community and need to be supported.

Public school programs that include sports are incredibly important to kids. This program in particular means a lot to kids in our neighborhood. I would hate to see it be cut

Kids need to have access to sport

Process matters and so do programs that benefit vulnerable youth.

Not enough patk resources on the east side of the city
