Words have the power to trigger pain as severe as being physically attacked. When we feel threatened in conflicts, it can be hard to keep engaging in open and constructive ways. Do your best to sincerely help everyone feel as safe as possible: youtube.com/shorts/Vy6zwnJoS…

“For too long, #CBSA has evaded independent review & been allowed to self-police all complaints. The new Public Complaints & Review Commission created by Bill C-20 is an important step toward greater accountability” said ICLMG, 1 of 9 orgs that worked to improve C-20. 1/ #cdnpoli
