Each year the public affairs industry comes together for the Union of BC Municipalities Convention. It is a full week of canapés, clients, and conversations.

Join PAAC-BC for a casual social and network with fellow industry professionals. This event is scheduled before the official UBCM Welcome Reception - take a break from business before the marathon officially begins.

To sweeten the deal, it is happy hour at Earls until 5:30 with specials available for food and drinks. (So arrive on time, your accountant will thank you!)

PAAC-BC members and non-members are welcome to attend. Pre-registration is appreciated.

Who is Public Affairs Association of Canada?

The Public Affairs Association of Canada (PAAC) is a national, not-for-profit organization founded in 1984. Our principal objective is to help public affairs professionals succeed in their work by providing them with forums for professional development, the exchange of new ideas and networking.

PAAC’s growing membership represents a cross-section of the many disciplines involved in public affairs including policy development, government relations, lobbying, communications, opinion research and public relations. Our members come from both the private and public sectors, in areas such as industrial and financial companies, crown corporations, consulting firms, small business, ministries and municipalities, PR organizations, trade associations, educational institutions, law and accounting firms.

Why Join PAAC?

The Public Affairs Association of Canada is the leading forum for representing lobbyists’ concerns to all levels of government in Canada. We actively engage lobbyist regulators in discussion about the rules and regulations governing lobbyist registration and reporting requirements in Canada. The PAAC has presented to various government committee’s on proposed changes to lobbying law at the federal, provincial and municipal levels. In addition, the PAAC hosts conferences, conducts media interviews and submits opinion editorials all in an effort to position lobbying as a key and valuable component of the public policy process.
