🔴 Today, May 5th, is Red Dress Day — the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2-Spirit People (MMIWG2S).
This is more than remembrance.
It’s a call for justice. A demand for change.

April Fools? Not when it comes to gender-based violence. Today, members of Toronto’s Gender-Based Violence and Intimate Partner Violence Working Group have planned a Day of Action to release a Joint Statement drawing attention to the implications of the elimination of the Federal Minister of Women and Gender Equality.
The intricate and multifaceted nature of gender-based violence, along with the expertise needed to address it and promote gender equality, requires the focused leadership of a specialized minister and department. By moving these issues under another ministry, the government diminishes its accountability for women's rights, gender equity, and gender-based violence.
