During this month of Pride, I am reminded of the transmisogyny trans people face daily. I want Pride to be every month and the voices of trans women centred in our work towards equality for all women. Thank you @IsisIntrepid and @FaeJohnstone for your courage and bravery.

Shawna, and Team @unitedwayhh, is returning to walk for the 15th anniversary of Walk a Mile in Their Shoes! Gender-based violence is an important but often challenging and vulnerable topic to talk about. (1/4)

"In nearly 20 years as an advocate for women and girls, I have learned that there will always be people who say it’s not the right time to talk about gender equality." @melindagates knows women's organizations are last on the list of priorities. nytimes.com/2024/05/28/opi…

Thanks so much to @lisahepfner for the House of Commons shout out! 🇨🇦📖🇨🇦 We are so lucky in #HamOnt to have an AMAZING #WritingCommunity and I’m so excited that CHRYSALIS is the 2024 #HamiltonReads title!

I love to promote a good read & the first book by Hamilton Mountain’s own Anuja Varghese is killer. Chrysalis speaks to women who don’t see themselves in most stories & empowers readers through great storytelling.

This is a scary time for women's rights, I hope everyone understands the repercussions for women when you vote. Time to educate those around us about the changes political parties are and are not willing to advocate for

Every woman in every corner of this country deserves and should have access to the medicine they need to control their future and their body.



It takes courage for women to tell their stories about exercising their rights to an abortion. Health care is private, but to protect our bodies women have to expose themselves to the public. Love and respect to @SorayaMartinezF for protecting all of us. thespec.com/politics/feder…


Great conversations with Minister @MarciIen about the ongoing need to invest in women entrepreneurs and the tech sector. Always good to talk with leaders who understand the value of the work done @YWCA_Hamilton

YWCA Hamilton is one of only two Safer Use Spaces for Women and Gender-Diverse people in Canada. The gendered approach means that more people can experience comfort, safety and security from peers and compassionate staff from YWCA, @keepingsix and @HAMSMArTeam

"Three beds is not enough for the YWCA to care for every pregnant person in need and it is currently looking to expand. It's seeking government funding for a 90-unit supportive transitional housing project on land it owns on Barton Street, called the Oakwood Project, said Uppal.
