Survivors of gender-based violence should not have to endure re-traumatization and invasion of privacy in the pursuit of justice. We are hopeful that the SCC recognizes this as harm and not only condemns it but prioritizes the importance of protecting survivors first.
The SCC's decision today upholds important protections for sexual assault survivors in criminal trials. The majority recognized that trials “can be invasive, humiliating, and degrading” for survivors and that “[m]ore needs to be done.” Press release: leaf.ca/news/supreme-c…
Rural Canadians make up 16% of the population but were 38% of femicide victims in 2020. Last week, a provincial inquest into the triple femicides in Wilno concluded that rural, remote and Northern women remain under resourced and under represented in the feminist movement.
Did you know? The rate of intimate partner violence is 1.8 times higher in rural areas than urban areas. Source: Stats Canada
