@jyu_law Completely agree. The mother has the right to decide what she wants to do because she knows the most about her financial and health conditions, how ready she is to be a parent, and how a child will impact her future.
@elina_bcsslaw @Faina_BCSSlaw 2/2 While I agree that patients who have followed the guidelines and have been sober for over 6 months should have the priority, it seems unfair that a woman in critical condition is denied the right, especially if, because of a personal donor, it does not take away from others.
@elina_bcsslaw @Faina_BCSSlaw 1/2 I believe that if someone willingly and specifically volunteers to donate their liver to the woman, then she has the right to undergo the surgery.
It's nearly indisputable that Hurricane Harvey's intensity was caused by climate change. We are forcing the earth to undergo change that it was not meant to, which results in natural disasters striking not only powerfully, but also frequently. https://t.co/PNccbmkaIQ
The devastation hurricane Harvey brought was not only traumatic but was the costliest tropical cyclone on record, From reading the article do you agree/believe hurricane Harvey was caused due to climate change ? https://t.co/v2PXsrqDGs
It's so important to not let unwarranted deaths go to waste. Every time, the loss of innocent lives could have been prevented, or at least lessened. It is our job to learn from them and take action in order to prevent similar situations from happening in the future. https://t.co/tmk0wxWR2t
@LawAbril I strongly believe that it should be mandatory. The reason why so many offenders get away with their actions is because confronting the topic makes us uncomfortable. We need to learn how to face and deal with the reality of sexual assault in order to prevent it in the future.
@Faina_BCSSlaw 2/2 Given that the victim initiated the events, that the accused had no personality disorders and was described as introverted, and that he had no memory of the night other than complying with her requests, I believe that he genuinely did not intend to kill her.
@Faina_BCSSlaw 1/2 This is definitely a unusual case. A reasonable person would have noticed that something was wrong, but this man claimed to have automatism (performance of actions without conscious intention).
@aliceinlawland I agree; this is too serious of a crime to be dismissed. It’s unfair that others’ neglect could result in criminals possibly walking free. Jurors should be fined when they fail to do their job properly because they have the power change lives.
2/2 Given that Hehr is the federal minister of people with disabilities, I am shocked at the way he rudely dismissed those who sought his help. I’m glad to see that this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated by our government. https://t.co/qWKMpRmrOG
Hehr has been accused of insensitivity when dealing with those seeking action from his government, ranging from thalidomide victims to a woman whose veteran husband is suffering from chronic PTSD symptoms, writes columnist Tim Harper. https://t.co/wVNRA3jhn0
1/2 If you take on the role of someone who has the ability to impact others’ lives, you need to be able to give the time, dedication, patience, and compassion that comes with it. https://t.co/qWKMpRmrOG

Scary to think that at any moment, a malfunctioning aircraft could endanger lives. The window barely missed landing on a group of students and causing potentially irreversible damage. The Corps should have conducted an investigation the first time it happened. https://t.co/DeTzP2g5d5
@escottlaw Definitely! So many of the things we discard like food, old clothes, and even abandoned buildings could bring safety and shelter to those who don’t have it. It takes only a little effort for us to make sure it doesn’t go to waste, but it would make all the difference to them.
@elina_bcsslaw The victim was cooperating, and posed no threat. The officer had absolutely no reason to shoot him. I'm appalled by the way blatant demonstrations of police brutality are dismissed as if such behaviour is acceptable.
@jyu_law What's just as bad as the assault is the fact that the woman did not receive help when she clearly needed it. The reason why so many victims are still afraid to speak out is because they feel that if they tried to, they would be ignored, criticized, and humiliated like she was.
In today’s society, where the limitations of our rights are more controversial than ever, we need to consider: do the pros outweigh the cons? Is this invasion of privacy justified if it can help prevent possible attacks? https://t.co/8E2lYxKvR6
Regardless of how old the case is, a perpetrator should be held accountable for his actions. Because of this statute, criminals who manage to evade the police could possibly escape their sentences. Should the law be repealed or at least revised to include a longer period of time? https://t.co/qwgbhfuesv
2/2 I strongly believe that she should serve the full sentences for her crimes because despite her claims, the assessment declared her fit to stand trial. Do you think she should additionally be charged for trying to avoid trial by exaggerating mental health issues? https://t.co/tt1NI0sLND
Willett appeared in court Tuesday in front of Judge John McMahon, her cheeks pinched, face white and shoulders slumped, as he ruled she is medically fit to stand trial. https://t.co/7JbVDxLYou
