Victims of domestic abuse will now meet their prosecution team before trial โ€” with a dedicated @CPSUK liaison officer supporting them every step of the way. A key takeaway from the Solicitor General @elliereeves in the House of Commons yesterday.

And to add to what @OPP_News said its borderless ...
June is #PTSDAwarenessMonth. PTSD can impact anyone, especially those who regularly witness traumatic, life-threatening or deeply distressing events. #OPP officers across #Ontario are often the first on scene, responding to situations most people never have to face. Early intervention is crucial when treating mental health conditions such as PTSD. Evidence-based treatment plans can be highly effective in helping individuals manage symptoms, build resilience and support long-term recovery. For member information and support, visit opp.ca/hwt.

Spot on @erinotoole ... and something we will be discussing in my law subjects this semester @BondUniversity
I have great respect for the Chief Justice, but agree with this editorial. At a time when the people involved in this litigation have little faith in our institutions, the SCC must ensure that justice must โ€˜manifestly and undoubtedly be seen to be doneโ€™. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/โ€ฆ

An illustration why a single vantage point (or a clip or snip) does not always conclusively prove a bad act ... it also illustrates why rushing to judgement should not be a default. No different with police BWC footage ... #evidence #law
WATCH๐Ÿšจ: The internet rushing to judgment again over a clipped video ๐Ÿ˜… It looked like Rafael Jรณdar pushed the ball girl, but the full shot clearly shows she tripped on her own while he was gesturing toward his box. Context matters.

Yikes ... not a Canadian case to stuff up on considering its impact then and now ... - the word "person" included women - Lord Sankey and the Living Tree Doctrine A monumental case for Canada and a monumental mistake by Canada's Prime Minister. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ #CdnHist #PersonsCase
The Persons Case (1929) didnโ€™t give Canadian women the vote. Theyโ€™d already been voting federally for more than a decade by then. If youโ€™re gonna do performative feminism, do it better.

How anyone who isn't loaded can run for office in the USA is beyond me ...

Interesting contrast to the Canadian electoral system (First Past The Post) this seat would have went to the LNP on the first count ... #qldpol
