I have filed a story about digital violence targeting women & girls. Digital violence includes such malicious activities as: cyberstalking, harassment, threats, posting intimate images without permission etc. The impact of digital violence is devastating. Read all about it Friday.

I am hard at work on an upcoming piece about digital violence against women & girls. Most women & girls online probably know how dangerous & toxic the digital world is. Indeed, this issue of great concern to the UN. More on this story on Friday @whigstandard.bsky.social #misogyny

Working on an upcoming piece about the vital roles women play in Canadian politics, climate action, & social justice. To understand how to overcome misogyny & gender inequality, I spoke to Catherine McKenna about her inspirational career & the importance of ‘running like a girl.’ More Friday!

If Quebec were to ban face coverings in public, this mask wearing immune compromised journalist would not be able to travel to Quebec. As Canadians, we have become accustomed to seeing such reactionary policies in the USA. But we should stand against such restrictions in Canada.

As an immune compromised gent of a certain age, I always wear a mask when sharing indoor air in public spaces, such as coffee shops, stores, offices, & medical settings. SARS-Cov-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is airborne. I salute Violet Affleck for being a true leader!
