Time for an intro since I got a few new followers in the run-up to the June 8th burial. Welcome everyone! 👋🏻 I'm Sarah. I'm a Forensic Anthropologist & I identify the remains of 🇨🇦 war dead. I'm a certified yoga teacher & a paddleboarding & SUP Yoga instructor. 1/3

Nearly 28,000 Canadian military members who died in the First World War, the Second World War, and the conflict in Korea remain missing. Learn how the Casualty ID Program can help verify if any of your missing family members are among remains. canada.ca/en/department-nati…

Tuning in to CTV News to watch the repatriation of Newfoundland's unknown soldier. @S_Lockyer is one of their able commentators and one part of the team that exhumed the Newfoundander's remains. My @JunoBeachCentre colleague, Marie Eve Vaillancourt, is on Radio Canada coverage.

Thanks Mike!

This is an incredible time for women's sports in Canada. It's part of a tide sweeping the world. Believe women. Pay women. Support women. We need to keep making sports safe for women; racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny are still present. We need to eradicate them.

FUCK OUI!!!!!!!!

I keep talking when men interrupt me. Eventually, they get the idea because I'm loud and take up space. Or I'll immediately remind them that I'm Dr. Lockyer when they've addressed all the men by rank/title and used Sarah for me.

The decision for @wckitchen to restart feeding in Gaza is both the hardest and the simplest one we could make. Hard, because only a month has passed since seven of our WCK colleagues were killed in an IDF attack. These humanitarian heroes risked everything to feed people they did not know and would never meet. And yet simple, because the need is so great. We cannot stand by while so many people are so desperate for the essentials of life. #ChefsForGaza #longertables washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

YES LADIES!!!!!

The seven angels killed on a @WCKitchen mission in Gaza on Monday were the best of humanity. The Israeli government needs to open more land routes for food and medicine today. It needs to stop killing civilians and aid workers today. It needs to start the long journey to peace today. You cannot save the hostages by bombing every building in Gaza. You cannot win this war by starving an entire population. nytimes.com/2024/04/03/opini…

If you want some insane context, this viewership for Iowa-LSU number tops every World Series game in 2023 and all but one NBA Finals game in 2023.

Today @WCKitchen lost several of our sisters and brothers in an IDF air strike in Gaza. I am heartbroken and grieving for their families and friends and our whole WCK family. These are people…angels…I served alongside in Ukraine, Gaza, Turkey, Morocco, Bahamas, Indonesia. They are not faceless…they are not nameless. The Israeli government needs to stop this indiscriminate killing. It needs to stop restricting humanitarian aid, stop killing civilians and aid workers, and stop using food as a weapon. No more innocent lives lost. Peace starts with our shared humanity. It needs to start now.

We are aware of reports that members of the World Central Kitchen team have been killed in an IDF attack while working to support our humanitarian food delivery efforts in Gaza. This is a tragedy. Humanitarian aid workers and civilians should NEVER be a target. EVER.

CBC mentions @S_Lockyer in #WW1 soldier ID. Francis Hemsley (b. 1880) and immigrated to Canada in 1911. Lt Francis H. Hemsley KIA Aug 16 1917. Body lay undiscovered until 2012. Family research, DNA and buttons identified him. He will be buried this summer cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatche…

Lt. Frank Hemsley's family thought his body was lost after he died fighting for Canada in the First World War. It took more than a century, but a Canadian team of forensic anthropologists and the latest DNA technology have proven otherwise. cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatche… .

I always love hearing/reading anecdotes and stories from the family of those identified. Richard, Lt Hemsley's grandson, has been an absolute pleasure to speak to in the last few months. cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatche…

It took 11.5yrs for us to identify Lt Hemsley. It feels great to know that we were finally able to identify his remains found in 2012! I was the one to call his grandson to tell him that his DNA donation had yielded very positing DNA results. That day and today were great days.

I was in this same arena 9 months ago for a sold-out WNBA exhibition game. If we stop discounting women and girls, they dream big *and* fill arenas. This could not be more obvious. INVEST 👏🏽 IN 👏🏽 WOMEN'S 👏🏽 SPORTS 👏🏽

This! Work will never love you back. I was asked in an interview once if I was a workaholic; I could tell they were surprised when I said a hard no. When I'm done work for the day, I fully clock out. I love my job but work-life balance is vital.
