For training to have an impact individuals have to: (1) want to be there (2) believe there are things they don’t know (3) be receptive to learning new information even if it challenges core beliefs. The ppl who need it most generally don’t meet these criteria.

This all started last year when NS Premier Tim Houston adopted legislation declaring intimate partner violence an epidemic. In BC, we have been clear that we don’t want or need performative declarations - every jurisdiction in Canada that has performed a GBV or IPV as epidemic declaration has then done little to nothing to actually address the issue - beyond the declaration. #DesignedWithSurvivors

This is the oldest trick in politics - kicking a problem down the road by ‘striking a committee’. @nsgov to establish a 25-member advisory committee on gender-based violence #IPV #MVAW #CallItFemicide #nspoli thecanadianpressnews.ca/atlantic/nova-…

In Canada, right now, efforts to respond effectively to lethal IPV does require the femicide framing and designation - these are aggrevating characteristics that need to be separated. Other countries do it why can’t Canada #CallItFemicide? #DesignedWithSurvivors

In #Canada, tories urge support for #femicide legislation, but they don't actually #CallItFemicide. The proposed legislation remains #gender neutral which, in the past, has worked against women, not helped them. pentictonherald.ca/news/national_… via @pentictonherald

I'm extremely pleased to see the government announce that it is going to repeal the presumption of parental involvement. This is a huge victory for @clairethrossell and others have fought tirelessly to ensure children lives aren't put at risk due to unsafe contact orders.

I sense ‘burying the lede’ here. This looks like the real story may be male violence against women to me. NJ teen’s alleged hit-and-run killings possibly ‘vengeance’ for victim mocking Charlie Kirk | Read full article at san.com/cc/nj-teens-al…

Gisele Pelicot is forced back to court today as one of her rapists appeals (link in next post). But did you know that Canada has its own network of predators doing exactly what Pelicot’s husband & neighbours did? @avery_haines @CTVW5 youtu.be/5QREGD8APM4?si…

Well, I guess you can call me a law changer! Today, the Victims, Witnesses, and Justice Reform Bill passed - critically with an amendment to make court transcripts free for rape survivors. This is something that’s come directly from survivors’ pain and I couldn’t be more proud.

I've been asked to spread the word about Samuel Bird, a 14 year old indigenous boy who's missing in Edmonton. His mother Alanna has been out on the North Saskatchewan River daily searching for her son. There is a very active Facebook page "Bring Samuel Bird Home".
