It was a full house for this year’s TEDx Chilliwack as speakers presented talks about clothing destroying the planet, sex, technology and produce, health care and more at G.W. Graham theatre on Saturday.
This year’s TEDx event was titled “On Purpose.”
The day-long event featured a dozen speakers with topics like: Brain Injury to Brain Upgrade, Do Doctors Really “Care” in Healthcare?, and What You Don’t Know is Hurting You.
Five of the 12 speakers were from Chilliwack. They included: Dr. Carin Bondar, Steven Point, Fatima Zaidi, Alyson Seale and Natalie Forstbauer.
The audience was also treated to live music by Lori Paul & Spiderlodge, and Trevor McDonald, plus Steven Point performed his original song ‘British Columbia.’ (See video above)
This was the fourth year for TEDx Chilliwack. It began locally in 2016.
