36 years ago, 14 young Montreal women were murdered for one reason: They were women.
Misogyny & violence against women remain deeply rooted in our society. In the past year, there have been horrific attacks in BC that remind us how urgently we need to address this issue.

Canada lost a legend. Colleen Jones was beloved in Nova Scotia and across Canada as a giant in the world of curling.
She represented the best of Canadian sport and the Canadian spirit.
My deepest sympathies to her family and colleagues.
Go to the angels.

🚨 I pledge to NEVER step foot in a Walmart again. If I cannot afford it or find it elsewhere, I do not need it. White people MUST take a stand. This openly hostile contempt for black people cannot be tolerated or dismissed. I am not waiting for a national strike - I am DONE. Who will join me?

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.
