Proud to sign this letter in a coalition of GBV advocacy orgs to the Progress Monitoring Committee who monitor the implementation of Mass Casualty Commission recommendations. Their annual progress report was greatly lacking in detail on progress on IPV/GBV Nova Scotia Gov. Tim Houston
Speaking up is a fundamental human right - a path to justice and change. Yet NDAs silence victims of abuse and harassment. As the UK Employment Rights Bill is debated, we urge the committee and Department for Business and Trade to pass the amendment to stop this injustice. #humanrightsday
Holding govt accountable is a key part of advocacy. Our joint efforts featured in The Coast - Halifax/Kjipuktuk Show me the progress thecoast.ca/news-opinion/s…
In light of too many recent femicides in NS - advocates including BTPI call for action on govt's declaration of IPV as an epidemic and MCC recommendations to invest in prevention and the GBV sector. Thank you Emma Halpern, E Fry Mainland NS & Robert Wright halifax.citynews.ca/2025/01/04/as-…
