It took me 31 years to stop using drugs. It wasn’t easy. I relapsed many, many times. Thank God (and health-care in BC) for harm reduction keeping me alive until I made it stick. But as hard as that was, it turned out that quitting drugs was still easier than learning to accept…

I reiterate what I said in 2017 below. But mostly I am heartbroken for all those women who gave evidence and whose punishing trauma will be beyond our imagination.
The lives of women & gender minorities rely on access to safe and legal abortions. I'm proud to present a petition that urges the federal government to protect abortion rights in Canada. My @NDP colleagues & I agree that access to abortion is a human right.
