Friday Film Night

Join us at the MCA House for our next Friday Film Night, featuring the award-winning documentary Pride vs. Prejudice: The Delwin Vriend Story.

Description: Delwin Vriend never wanted to be an activist. In 1991, he was fired from his job at a Christian college in Edmonton simply for being gay. When the government of Alberta refused to protect him under its human rights legislation, Vriend launched a courageous legal battle. The documentary explores the dramatic twists and turns of the Vriend v. Alberta case. Vriend took his fight all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada.

2026 Municipal Election Events at the MCA House

All Candidates' Tea

Election Night

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the Metchosin Community House for our 2026 Municipal Election events! It was wonderful to see community members come together to connect, ask questions, and take an interest in the future of Metchosin.

On October 3, the MCA hosted an All Candidates’ Tea, welcoming residents to meet the candidates running for Mayor, Councillor, and Sooke School District Trustee. Over tea, coffee, and light refreshments, attendees had the opportunity to hear brief introductions, ask questions, and get to know the people seeking to represent our community.

On October 17, we opened our doors once again for an Election Night Gathering, providing a welcoming place for residents and candidates to gather, enjoy a cup of tea, and await the election results.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make these events an opportunity for community connection and conversation. We’re grateful to be able to provide a space where Metchosin residents can come together and participate in local civic life!

Fraser Williams

congratulations to our 2026 Educational Award Recipients

The Metchosin Community Association is pleased to announce Fraser Williams and Riley Pardell as the recipients of our 2026 Educational Awards. Each will receive $1,000 to support their educational pursuits.

Fraser is studying at the University of British Columbia, pursuing her passion for marine conservation. She hopes to work as a research diver on coral reef conservation projects. As she shared in her application, “Studying and protecting the oceans are what I want to dedicate my life to.”

Born and raised in Metchosin, Riley is working toward a Bachelor of Kinesiology at UBC. She hopes to continue studying medicine or dentistry before returning to Metchosin to establish a local practice close to the forests, farmland, and ocean she has always called home.

Congratulations to Fraser and Riley! We wish them every success in their studies and future careers.

These awards are made possible through the dedication of our community volunteers and the fundraising events and initiatives they organize, including the Mighty Metchosin Garage Sale and the Community Metal Bin. Thank you to everyone who helps make these opportunities possible!
