Mount Saint Vincent University has stripped METL of the honorary degree they granted to her in 2005. We commend their courage and leadership. Stealing our identities, histories and trauma brings consequences. METL no longer holds ANY honorary doctorate degrees.

A Pulitzer & a Peabody!! What an unbelievable 2 days! This feels like undeniable proof that Indigenous stories matter & that we should support Indigenous people to tell them. We are so grateful to survivors who shared with us & hope this means more people will hear their voices.

I had a great visit to Quw’utsun territory to present to hundreds of teachers in the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island. Hopefully it leads to better educational and social outcomes for Indigenous students 😊

Thanks ⁦@vlocarmen⁩ for spending time to chat with me about elevating Indigenous health systems & providing life-saving gender affirmative care, especially for our 2spirit & trans relatives. I encourage more #MedTwitter to incorporate this in practice. forbes.com/sites/victorlo…
