Over the past few weeks I've been working on a project to remember Zainab, Sahar, Geeti and Rona. They were murdered 15 years ago by their own family. Victims names should never be forgotten. #ygk Here is our effort to never forget these women: thewhig.com/tag/shafia/
#ICYMI: Constable John Theriault is a one-man unit who spent over 1,200 hours analyzing cellphone data in 2023 alone. But further resources are needed to keep his unit on top of the workload, he said. "We are doing a disservice." #YGK #crime Full story:kingstonist.com/news/kingston-…
Sunday is #GreenShirtDay, a great day to register your consent to become an organ and tissue donor. The organ and tissue donor registration rate in #ygk is 51%, even though 90% of Canadians say they support organ donation. Why wait? Register today at BeADonor.ca.
From the Toronto Star Editorial Board "the Landlord and Tenant Board....backlogs have resulted in tens of thousands of Ontarians suffering “significant hardship.”... It’s the inevitable result when merit takes a back seat to partisanship in hiring decisions."
Under Doug Ford, Ontario’s tribunals are under sever attack. The attack on the independence of adjudicative tribunals has flown almost entirely under the radar. #StarEditorial trib.al/xucL2Jn
Community alert: 50% increase in KFL&A drug poisonings since Feb 24. Prolonged deep sedation/hallucinations, not responding well to naloxone. It’s vital to not use drugs alone. Call 911 immediately if drug poisoning is suspected. Consider carrying multiple doses of naloxone. #ygk

"No, I am not pregnant, I actually lost my uterus to cancer last year and this is what women of my age look like. So if it is offensive to you, that is unfortunate. Think about the emails that you send." #womeninjournalism
Global News Calgary traffic reporter @global_leslie responds to an email criticising her choice of clothes. #yyc
Yesterday was the anniversary of Dr. Elana Fric's murder. She had just started the process of ending her marriage, and her death is a reminder that the most vulnerable time for a woman experiencing #IPV is when she tries to leave. @WomenOMA @CWIMorg @FMWCanada @forlittlekeira
9-8-8 is a great resource for people across Canada. Having volunteered ages ago at #DistressCentreNiagara I know the difference it can make for someone in distress. #Suicidecrisisline #988 #MentalHealthsupport #PanCanadian cbc.ca/news/thenation…
#BreakingNews The Superior Court of Justice has denied the City's application, ruling that enforcement of the bylaw which would allow for the removal of the encampment would also infringe on the Charter rights of those living within it. #YGK #KFLA #onpoli kingstonist.com/news/superior-…
All journalists will understand this.

🧵The #FluShot is not a guarantee, but significantly reduces your chance of infection, serious outcome, or passing flu to those who may not survive it. The #FluShot program in Ontario has reduced cases by ~61%, but <40% participate. Who could yours protect? #ForJudeForEveryone
The Cataraqui River is the lower section of the Rideau Canal, flowing into Lake Ontario at Kingston, Ontario. It's worth noting that Kingston was originally named Cataraqui. Sitting by the flowing water of the river was a delightful experience. To make the experience even more…
Someone needs to FOI this tweet. (I’d imagine there were 37 staffers and weeks of planning involved.)
It’s me, hi. I know places in Canada would love to have you. So, don’t make it another cruel summer. We hope to see you soon.
I came of age at the time of the Ecole Polytechnic massacre in 1989, becoming a lawyer four days later. It shaped my career choices, and I despair at the fact that although I'm nearing retirement, we still face this type of gender-based violence. Enough! cbc.ca/news/canada/ki…
"Despite ongoing funding announcements from the federal and Ontario governments for mental health initiatives, the waitlists to access local programs and services are months and even years long," the #KFLA Family Advisory Council writes. #ygk #mentalhealth kingstonist.com/family/letter-…
