An MP in Zimbabwe has called for the repeal of the country's "backwards" 1977 abortion law. He argued that safe abortion should be available to a wider range of Zimbabwean women, as it is currently restricted to a privileged few. Each year, 60,000 women die due to unsafe abortion.

An Ontario Court Justice says : "I didn’t want to spend the weekend at Maplehurst. I was terrified of spending the weekend at Maplehurst.”

ON jails are overcrowded, understaffed & inhumane.

So bad that a judge is afraid to spend a single weekend in one.

This is basic, basic accountability information. And in the case of information about the training the officers who work with schools get, it could help improve public perception of the program.

I have no idea why the VPD fights so hard to prevent the release of this info.
It took reporter @kehyslop.bsky.social 21 months of FOI requests and pursuing a formal review of the VPD's denial for info to get the police to release the names of officers who currently staff Vancouver schools. thetyee.ca/News/2025/11...

We could live in a country where we reduce our energy bills, clean our air and water, revitalize our communities, take back our energy sovereignty, and create thousands of good-paying union jobs in the process.

The secret? Public ownership.

This is not progress. It is a full-blown retreat.

A real feminist foreign policy demands concrete action on gender equality and a clear defence of the human rights of all people. Instead, Carney, just like Harper before him, has walked away from the world’s most vulnerable.
