British Colombia Wildlife Emerg. Contacts

[Willowsong]

Hey everyone...
I was looking for places to contact in my own area, and I came across a bunch that are in BC... I know from browsing thru the list that there was someone in BC looking for help, but I don't know what post it was and can't find it.
Maybe one of the moderators can point this post to whomever it was, if they recall? Anyway here's the list... I can't guarantee if they would/would not take pigeons, since I live in Ontario and only happened across these listings, but you don't know til you call, I suppose, so I'll leave it up to you.
(There's quite a lot of them in all different areas... some are probably only rehab but I imagine they can point you to someone who can help BEFORE rehab at least.) I've eliminated any that didn't mention birds.
