BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

“A woman is killed every 10 minutes, and it's most often by someone she knows. Violence against women is a society that continues to frame violence against women as a ‘women's issue' when it's an issue almost always caused by men.”

Gender-based violence is an everyday reality, and it starts with minimizing misogyny
As we highlight 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence and the upcoming anniversary of the Montreal massacre, can we take a moment to reflect on all the different forms this violence takes?

“Violence against women is a toxic online culture that allows young men to feel entitled to women's attention and to react with violence when they don't get it, leading to a 14-year-old girl in NDG recently being stabbed in the face for rejecting a boy's advances.”

The Polytechnique massacre wasn't just a mass shooting — it was a mass femicide. The gunman explicitly targeted women and blamed feminists for the troubles in his life. We must fight like hell to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Don’t you dare forget their names.

On Dec. 4, 1977, CBC aired an animated special called A Cosmic Christmas.
It was one of the first productions by a Canadian studio that later brought us Inspector Gadget, The Edison Twins and The Care Bears.
It also led to the creation of Boba Fett.
This is the story.
