Another day. Another death. Another mental health crisis. We need leadership in this province, not name calling by our premier.#nspoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

A belated Ramadan Kareem. ☪️ ❤️🙏🏻

Sleepy puppy.

Ohhhhhhhh this is the bad place. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

Head up Nova Scotia. 🔥✊🏻#nspoli

Perhaps this is what Tim Houston means when he says we are problem stretchers? 🤔 “Problem stretcher (noun): The practice of expanding the problem frame to challenge assumptions and create space for innovative, socially responsible decision-making.” #nspoli

Oh man. Did anyone catch question period today? Tim Houston called me and others who criticize the government “problem stretchers.” #nspoli

My response to Minister Leah Martin’s appalling fundraising letter. #nspoli

I’m not a professional protester. This is so offensive and disgusting.#nspoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Sometimes I lose hope and then people like @afpbrosha.bsky.social show up and kick some ass. This is the future right here 👇🏻

This week's substack is dedicated to Minister Becky Druhan and all of the women in the Nova Scotia PC party. #nspoli open.substack.com/pub/uprising...

Let me rewrite this headline: Trump is an 🏀 faced liar. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/u...

Meanwhile on Instagram the PCs have blocked me from commenting on their posts. Fine. Kendrick Lamar and Not Like Us for our child of a premier and his games. #nspoli

This smells like getting ahead of a scandal. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Houston didn’t have time to meet with us, but he had time to fly to Toronto to shill for Doug Ford. Ally my ass. #nspoli globalnews.ca/news/1101262...

Yes, I literally called the premier Ricky Bobby. globalnews.ca/news/1102592...

I wonder if Becky Druhan and the PC Party will read this article where they will see another survivor turn down million dollar settlements to avoid signing NDAs. #nspoli people.com/olivia-munn-...

No justice, no peace Houston. ✊🏻🔥

Gender-based violence advocates call on N.S. premier for more action www.saltwire.com/nova-scotia/...

This is an absolutely shameful and undemocratic exercise of power.#nspoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Just heard the premier call himself an “ally” to gender based survivors on CBC. Guess what Tim? You don’t get to decide who is an ally. We do. #nspoli

“Notably absent was premier Tim Houston, who, while invited well in advance, elected to schedule bill briefings at the exact same time as this rally.” #nspoli Read more at: www.thecoast.ca/news-opinion... www.thecoast.ca/news-opinion...

The premier of Nova Scotia is a coward. I would say that to his face if he would bother showing up to the legislature. Congratulations Nova Scotia. We basically have an autocrat in charge. #nspoli

I’m heading down to watch Houston explain this away, again. See you soon Ricky Bobby. #nspoli

Power to the people. This is OUR government, not Tim’s government. Survivors know what is trauma informed. We will not be silenced. Ever. ✊🏻🔥💕

The premier booked a media briefing on the bills instead of showing up to speak at the rally. This was intentional.

Media is here and we are all ready for the rally. Please join us at Parade Square at 11:30 to hear messages from advocates around the need for a whole society response to the rise of gender based violence.

I’ll be talking about this at the rally today. This government is not transparent. They seek to become less so. Our premier has thin skin and a bully for a chief of staff and they are using their majority to silence opposition. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Today we will walk and honour Payton, and all others who have lost their lives to IPV in Nova Scotia. 💜 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I’d rather pay bridge tolls and see GBV properly funded. This budget is a joke.

Canada should recruit these researchers asap. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

In this week’s Substack I talk about the power of public dissent and why nonprofits must be allowed to express their views.#nspoli open.substack.com/pub/uprising...

We are getting ready for Wednesday. Remember to join us from 11:30 am - 1 for a rally and gathering.

Kicking off our sign making event for the GBV Rally. 💜
