Once again, a victim of intimate partner abuse is being held responsible for the abuser’s actions. This has to stop. thestar.com/opinion/contri…

"Women". The word you're looking for is "women".
@SenLouiseLucas In case there was any confusion at all...
The coroner’s inquest into the murders of Carol Culleton, Anastasia Kuzyk & Nathalie Warmerdam has begun its third & final week. @JulieSLalonde is testifying about bystander intervention. She is beginning with her experience as a survivor of sexual violence, including stalking.
I have been following the inquest into the 2015 femicides of Carol Culleton, Nathalie Warmerdam & Anastasia Kuzyk, killed in a rampage by a man they'd each previously been in a relationship with. The killer had a long violent record, and was repeatedly ID'd as high risk.
Tuning into the Renfrew County inquest live stream this morning (again while stroller walking so bear with me). Matt Storey, who is Chief Firearms Officer with the Ministry of Community Safety & Correctional Services. Valerie Warmerdam is up asking questions.
Yesterday, I presented my report “Forty-four percent: A short history of intimate partner violence” to the jury at the Renfrew County triple homicide inquest. 44% of women in Canada are subjected to physical, sexual and or emotional abuse by their partner. lukesplace.ca/forty-four-per…
Nathalie Warmerdam’s daughter Valerie called on the jury to come up with solutions that “are not just based on catching monsters,” as she painted a picture of the complexities of those who abuse their partners. Her wisdom should be heeded if we want real solutions.
We should all listen to Valerie’s words — “I honestly don’t know if I would press charges” — were she to find herself in her mother’s situation. It’s an understated and searing indictment of the criminal response to intimate partner violence.
Part of ending mass shootings is taking seriously misogyny and men’s violence against women including when it manifests online.

I really want Canadians to sit with why we devoured wall-to-wall coverage of Harvey Weinstein but this story barely registers as a blip on the radar.

The coroner’s inquest into the murders of Carol Culleton, Anastasia Kuzyk & Nathalie Warmerdam has begun its third & final week. @JulieSLalonde is testifying about bystander intervention. She is beginning with her experience as a survivor of sexual violence, including stalking.
I have been following the inquest into the 2015 femicides of Carol Culleton, Nathalie Warmerdam & Anastasia Kuzyk, killed in a rampage by a man they'd each previously been in a relationship with. The killer had a long violent record, and was repeatedly ID'd as high risk.
Tuning into the Renfrew County inquest live stream this morning (again while stroller walking so bear with me). Matt Storey, who is Chief Firearms Officer with the Ministry of Community Safety & Correctional Services. Valerie Warmerdam is up asking questions.
Today I talk with @FrontBurnerCBC host @jayme_poisson about violence against women in rural communities and what changes are needed to end it. Listen on CBC Listen, Apple or Spotify. Peter Jaffe continues his testimony at the inquest this morning.
Nathalie Warmerdam’s daughter Valerie called on the jury to come up with solutions that “are not just based on catching monsters,” as she painted a picture of the complexities of those who abuse their partners. Her wisdom should be heeded if we want real solutions.
We should all listen to Valerie’s words — “I honestly don’t know if I would press charges” — were she to find herself in her mother’s situation. It’s an understated and searing indictment of the criminal response to intimate partner violence.
@Baileymariereid I hope the younger survivor has a great deal of support around her right now. To have had the courage to pursue charges and testify to her assault at 15 and the jury didn’t convict…what a terrible, terrible day. Truly.

Folks are inconvenienced 4 max an hour on the streets. Black people are killed and incarcerated by police on a daily basis. But you want 2 be mad that you aren’t home in time for dinner? When members of our communities don’t live 2 see another day. Yeah, miss us with all that.
A reminder to fellow survivors, you do not need to consume media including news stories about sexual violence. You know intimately what it is. It's okay to unplug, mute words, take a break, curate your feed. Do what is best for you. You don't owe anyone your precious time. #MeToo
