The British Columbia Philatelic Society  has announced the creation of its first web site. The extensive web site includes a history of the club (the oldest in British Columbia), as well as information about its officers, upcoming meetings, and membership requirements. There are articles about past programs, links to other stamp organizations and Vancouver stamp dealers, a photo album, and a membership form.

The web site also features a "Tributes" page which will honor members of the Society who have made notable contributions to philately. The first member to be so honored is Blair Henshaw, who successfully lobbied Canada Post to issue Canada's 1996 AIDS Awareness stamp. Henshaw died of AIDS-related illness in 2002. LINK
