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.
It is likely that the situation is same in #Canada.
Any response @StatCan_eng?

Why is a man who clearly has pathologies related to women still allowed to be a police officer? Risk behaviours associated with women should be an absolute disqualifier in policing, not a slap on the wrist.

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
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?

Woman killed remains nameless.
#SheHasAName so use it.

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.

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?
