Pride is not a 30-day event; it is a continuous commitment. While June provides an opportunity to amplify LGBTQ+ voices and celebrate how far the community has come, the need for safe, inclusive spaces doesn't expire when the calendar turns.

Everyone deserves a space where they can breathe easy and just be. 🏳️‍🌈✨
For LGBTQIA+ folks, a truly safe space means freedom from judgment, fear, and microaggressions. It’s where identities and pronouns are respected without question.

[GRCGED @grcged]

Inclusion isn’t just a nice idea—it’s the foundation of a society where everyone can thrive. 🏳️‍🌈✨

[GRCGED @grcged]

🌈 Pride Month is a beautiful time to celebrate, but true allyship requires actionable inclusion—and one of the simplest, most impactful steps we can take is normalizing the practice of asking for and sharing pronouns. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

No one deserves violence, stigma, or criminalization for how they survive or work.

IDAHOBIT calls to action for allies and policymakers to champion protective laws and equal rights. It's also a moment to honor the incredible resilience and diversity of the community, affirming that every person deserves the right to live authentically, safely, and without fear.

[GRCGED @grcged]

Sexual violence prevention requires a shift from viewing it as a series of isolated, extreme incidents to understanding it as a continuum of behavior. Small actions create the environment where more severe violence occur, being an upstander is essential for social change.

[GRCGED @grcged]

Ending sexual violence requires a shift in culture, policy, and individual behavior. Because this issue is systemic, the solutions range from personal accountability to large-scale advocacy.

Here is how we can collectively work to end sexual violence:

[GRCGED @grcged]

Let's honour the resilience of survivors, challenge the systemic roots of sexual violence, and educate ourselves on how to foster a culture of consent. By dismantling harmful myths and supporting trauma-informed resources, we can move toward a future where everyone is safe.

[Link to news story at end]

Male judge Craig Parry (Kitchener) acquits neurologist of 48 counts of sexual assault against 48 female patients.

Yes, that's right - 48 female patients came forward.

48 female patients were not believed.

48 female patients apparently deemed unreliable

Male judge discounts expert testimony of Dr. Vera Bril - yes, female doctor and expert - who told the court that it is not norm to do vaginal exams, breast exams or exams of other intimate areas during appointments for neurological concerns.

Go figure!

However, male judge knows better than female doctor/expert.

He finds the evidence of 48 women unreliable.

He acquits male accused anyway, despite the 'doctor' having had license revoked in 2019 by College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario.

Looking for any male who has had a prostate exam when they went to doctor for neurological concerns.

We'd love to year from you.

What happened during the acquittal of Jeffrey Sloka?
