[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:British Columbia Civil Liberties Association logo.png

Image:British Columbia Civil Liberties Association logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 16:34, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] CCLA/BCCLA

Is the BCCLA is a branch of the Canadian Civil Liberties Union, or is it acting independently? samwaltz 01:54, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kempling controversy

Considering the controversial decision by the BCCLA to intervene against Chris Kempling, whose stern treatment by authorities continues to this year, should different wording be used in both the lead and some of the sections. Phrases like they protect fundamental rights and freedoms are only their interpretation. After all, the plain language of the charter defines fundamental freemdoms as including both expression and religion rights, which the BCCLA argued against. I find the statements in the current article stating how the BCCLA champions rights too matter of fact, and ignores the choices the BCCLA had to make in taking sides in certain cases.
