Ontario Liberals’ gender violence strategy gets $242 million boost

From Ontario’s “It’s Never Okay” campaign, to the #MeToo and Time’s Up movements, demand for sexual violence services is growing as more women come forward to talk about their experiences of harassment and assault.

Calling it time to seize the moment, the government on Thursday announced a $242 million strategy to combat sexual and domestic violence — to improve programming, provide free legal advice to those reporting assault anywhere in the province, and to explore the idea of restorative justice.

“Our government has been listening,” said Women’s Issues Minister Harinder Malhi of consultations with 200 advocacy groups and agencies who helped create the new strategy.

“We have heard the stories of women who continue to live in dangerous situations because they can’t find safety. We know women have been waiting days, weeks and even months to receive counselling services and we know that survivors struggle to navigate through the legal system … these voices deserve a response because this situation cannot stand,” she said at a press conference held in downtown Toronto.

The funds include a 35 per cent boost in funding for all community based sexual assault centres, said Attorney General Yasir Naqvi.

Farrah Khan, of Ryerson University’s Consent Comes First office and co-chair of the provincial task force, said the announcement felt like “feminist Christmas.”

Providing free legal help “might increase the number of people feeling safe to go through (the justice system), and it will support them so they don’t feel isolated and alone. That’s the thing. These are very hard processes.”

Hurt feelings are of utmost importance.

A leg will grow back. It's true.

Wouldnt it be cheaper just to ban Muslim wife beaters from entering the country? I recall seeing a news report about an Iranian woman who took her hubby to court for assault. Wife told judge "he beats me very day and its totally un-necessary"!

Hubby defended himself with this: "I have to maintain my authority over her or she will become lazy and disobedient"!

And wife is disgusted and offended and tells the judge: "beating me once a week is really all needs"!

And Our idiot Boy Justin- the proud feminist wants to defend these people? HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Here is another good one for Our idiot Boy feminist:

Here is another article illustrating the twisted values of Muslims- values that ought NOT to be imported to Canada. With some comments of my own in brackets):

Menstruating girls 'banned from crossing Ghanaian river to get to school' 31/72

From The Independent. Jan 15/18. By Jon Sharman © Provided by Independent Digital News & Media Limited

Girls have reportedly been banned from crossing a river while menstruating by authorities in a central district of Ghana. As a result they are said to miss 20 out of 60 days of their school classes.

(Muslims have a well known loathing for menstruating women- Muslims expect all devotees to pray 5 times per day ta Mosque and that includes menstruating women, however they MUST be segregated as they are unclean.)

They have also been blocked from crossing on Tuesdays due to an apparent directive from a river god that is being enforced by traditional leaders, BBC Pidgin, the corporation's West African digital service reported.

(Oh! We have lots of rivers in Canada- how come our river Gods don’t object to menstruating native women? Perhaps our river Gods are more enlightened?)

The Ofin River ruling affects girls in Upper Denkyira East district.

"Sometimes I think that we need to ask for some form of accountability from these gods who continue to bar a lot of things from happening, to account for how they have used the tremendous power that we have given them," said Shamima Muslim Alhassan, a United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef) menstrual hygiene ambassador.

(A Muslim Menstrual Hygiene Ambassador? Words fail me - I am too busy laughing at the absurdity! But- a Muslim that also believes in a river God? Isn’t that a Muslim Blasphemy? There is only one God and his name is Allah and etc? Or not- as crazy people see fit? And then I thank the River God that Our dedicated feminist and idiot Boy Justin does not read newspapers or else we Cdns would be paying for a Multi Cultural Menstrual Hygiene Ambassador to commune with the River Gods on our behalf? How much would we have to pay a St Lawrence River God hired by LIE-berals? It’s a big river so it needs a big God too?)

The UN believes one in 10 girls in sub-Saharan Africa miss school during their period - potentially totally a fifth of a school year.

Elsewhere, a woman has died in a remote village in Nepal because of a tradition in which women are exiled from their homes and forced to live in huts during menstruation, said government administrator TulBahadurKawcha.

The 21-year-old is believed to have died from smoke inhalation from a fire she lit in the hut to keep warm in the freezing temperatures in the mountain village. She woman was found dead on Monday.

(Uh-it serves her bloody well right to be so careless with her fire? Or something?)

Mr Kawcha said the tradition is still practised in some remote villages despite a government ban on the practice and a law introduced last year to punish people who force women to follow the custom.

The new law goes into effect in August this year, with violators who force women into exile during menstruation facing up to three months in prison or a fine of 3,000 Nepalese rupees (£21).

Many menstruating women are still forced to leave their homes and take shelter in unhygienic or insecure huts or cow sheds until their cycle ends, though the practice - called "Chhaupadi" - was actually outlawed a decade ago.

Without any penalties, the custom continued in many parts of the majority Hindu Himalayan country, especially in the western hills.

(Oh- this is also a Hindu deal too? And maybe Trump had something of a point when he suggested Yankees would not benefit from immigration from third world countries since such people bring their crap ideas with them? Sort of like the Muslim teen girl in United States who got a little too cozy with western ways and got pregnant and hid it till after the child was born- at which point she was resting in her room from the labour when her devout Muslim father knocked on her door and demanded to know what she was doing and so she threw the kid out the eight story apartment window to hide it from HER DAD! Or we could look at all the documentaries lamenting Muslim honour killings and then ask why Cdn LIE-berals will not warn devout Muslims that such “honour” will get them labelled as murderers in Canada! Or how about the Muslim doctor on trial in Chicago over her habit of hiring herself out for Female Genital Mutilation operations? What will she cost hard pressed Yankee taxpayers? One has to aks if it would not be cheaper just to bar such loons from the country?)

While exiled in isolation, some women face bitter cold or attacks by wild animals.

A report last year from America's prestigious Columbia University, which concluded the enduring taboo around periods was endangering women's health around the world.

A lack of facilities "augments the challenges girls and women face in conducting daily activities while managing vaginal bleeding, including participating in school or work, going to the market or fetching water", the authors wrote.

They added that a "culture of silence" meant many people were not able to tell the difference between healthy or normal bleeding and that which might indicate a health problem.

(I do hope that nobody is expecting Cdn LIE-berals to provide answers to any of this stuff! They are far too busy denouncing us all as racists and Islamophobes to be worried about the rights of some woman freezing to death in a hut in the Himalayas! And besides- maybe it would make the women freezing in a hut feel warm and cozy to know that Our idiot Boy is a staunch feminist- even though his claims are mere rhetoric- as is so very much of all LIE-beral policy?)

Harassment is violence now?

As my posts reveal- to dispute ANY point with a LIE-beral is a criminal act! U of T professor Jordan Peterson has a lot of very well informed comments on the creeping fascism of our Human Righrs but too often Wrong Kangaroo Courts! Such legal "rules" as the Human Rights Kangaroos use as "guidelines" IGNORE standard rules of evidence and search and seizure!

Our former prime minister PIerre Trudope does not lie quietly in his grave- he is too busy LAUGHING as his idiot Boy fights on against what papa Pierre called Cdn imperialism! And what is Cdn imperialism? Pierre gave us hints:

In the political battle of wits-LIE-berals are not just unarmed-they are actually asking “What are arms”! Conservatives have the easy job in this argument-they have only to QUOTE from the writings of Pierre Trudope! LIE-berals can only quote from web sites that were created by LIE-berals to hide the truth!

Yet-LIE-berals constantly scream for proof-and yet they SCORN even quotes taken directly from the writings of Pierre Trudope! LIE-berals and their Hog allies do not want proof, they want GRAVY and fear that accepting obvious proof may hinder their chances of GETTING that gravy!

LIE-berals don’t want to talk about the Nemni biography of Our Pet. It was written by Max and Nadine Nemni-they were long time pals of Our Pet-they are also STAUNCH LIE-beral supporters and as such they were CHOSEN by Our Pet to be his biographer! They were given FULL access to Pierre`s papers and they came to SHOCKING CONCLUSIONS! The dismayed Nemni`s have publicly stated-and were quoted in Ottawa Citizen newspaper that “ we must re-access the position of Trudope in Cdn history”!

LIE-berals don’t want to talk about Our Pet refering to the war against Nazi Germany as `Imperialist`-in SO MANY of his personal papers and his written speeches. Don’t want to talk about his strong support for Vichy France and those who WORKED WITH the Nazis MOST CLOSELY-to round up Jews and Resistance fighters. Don’t want to talk about Our Pet supporting Stalin and Communist Russia-and he supported Hitler too-until Hitler sent his armies into Russia-at which point he abandoned support for Hitler.

LIE-berals DEMAND PROOF if the political deceits of Our Pet and IGNORE all manner of evidence. They don’t want to look at the old photos of Pierre leading gullible Cdn youth groups to meetings in Moscow-organized by Soviet secret police for propaganda purposes! Don’t want to recognize the part played by Soviet Mole Kim Philby in PROTECTING people like Trudeau! Don’t want to admit that `1940`s Cdn govt was riddled with Soviet agents who stole-among other things-the formula for the Manhattan project-the atomic bomb- from Ottawa. Don’t want to discuss the evidence given by Soviet defector and coding expert Igor Gouzhenko and later `buried` by Philby before Philby was exposed as a traitor. How interested were Soviets in Canada? We are seen as the back door into both Yankee and Brit society. Soviet hit men that traveled to Mexico City to murder former Soviet number two man Leon Trotsky did so on Cdn passports! Soviets KNEW AND WATCHED carefully in the mid 1930`s as Cdn and Brit scientists began research that led to the development of atomic energy and the `bomb`.

LIE-berals do not wish to read the book “Two Innocents in Red China-co-written by Our Pet and his CLOSE Pal Jacques Hebert. There is NO LIE-beral response to a direct QUOTE from the book in which Trudope gushes over “the genius of Mao in rushing 30 million Chinese to the gallows” in order to consolidate his hold on the country. To Trudope all those murders are just the cost of gaining power-got to break some eggs to make that political omelette!

And that Trudope pal Roger Romand claims to have been in on the `prank` of riding ONCE in a couple of World War ONE uniforms on a few deserted country roads. Romand offers NO answer to how it is that the elderly parents of Pierre would happen to have TWO COMPLETE Prussian uniforms-including the oddly shaped Pickelhaube helmets stored in the attic of the isolated rural retreat of the Trudope family. German prisoners of war were NOT shipped to Canada in WW1 as Britain was not frightened of invasion at that time. But MANY German prisoners WERE shipped to Canada in WW2 and it would have been VERY easy for Trudope to have collected a Nazi uniform as so many of them WERE shipped here-complete with their Nazi owners from 1940 on. And LIE-berals have NO response to the Montreal Jews who claim to have seen Trudope in their suburbs on multiple occasions-and those Jews suggest Trudope was lucky NOT to be shot as he so often gave Jews that Salmon Arm Salute he loved so well-and we Cdns can easily see him with finger raised in scorn can’t we! Is it not easier to believe the memories of elderly Jews than the self serving evasions of Romand and his ilk?

LIE-berals demand PROOF that Trudope ONCE rode his Harley motorcycle around Montreal-but there is NO proof they will accept. They IGNORE multiple reports from Montreal Jews after the fact! In 1941 there were still chapters of Ku Klux Klan operating in rural Canada. In 1941 there was still a Cdn Nazi Party in existence. In 1941 the wise Jew kept his mouth shut and did not rock the boat when some asshole named Trudope rode past on his Harley-dressed as a Nazi and giving the `Salmon Arm Salute` to the nosey Kikes who were making his pal Hitler LOOK BAD with their griping about concentration camp atrocities! It was only after the war and after Trudope got interested in politics that Montreal Jews began to open up about him-and Trudope began to deny history!

So LIE-berals refuse to look at evidence of elderly Jews who say they SAW Trudope multiple times in Montreal suburbs. And how handy for LIE-berals that virtually all of these old Jews have now died! And LIE-berals do trumpet the claims of web sites written by LIE-berals who dismiss the few old Jews left and after all they are old-so what can they really remember? So easy for the greedy young LIE-berals to sneer at feeble oldsters. I suspect that Trudope must have heard that Hitler comment: “if you are going to lie, tell big ones as they are easier for people to believe”! LIE-berals simply dismiss evidence and dare people to contradict-and then dismiss the people contradicting! If ARROGANT LIE-berals choose NOT to talk about it, then they decree it never happened!

LIE-berals also scorn the testimony of Czech born ex fighter pilot -first with the Czech air force, then the Polish air force and then the British air force and eventually Cdn newspaper reporter- Lubor Zink! It was to Zink that arrogant Pierre made the quote about taking Canada from the past into the future via radical socialism-if he had known more about rabid anti Nazi and anti Soviet Zink he would have zipped his lip! But he didn’t know who he was talking to and the damage was done and Zink gleefully trumpeted the news of Commie Trudope to the world-over a 35 YEAR career as a reporter! Our Pet could only respond by BANNING Zink from ALL LIE-beral newspaper scrums for the rest of his life while anti Trudope politicians snickered at Trudope discomfort! And ain’t that just like a LIE-beral-if they don’t admit it then it never happened!

Isnt it handy (and fortunate for LIE-berals) that Zink has died of old age and is no longer available to tell us what a hypocrite Trudope was? And isn’t it even MORE HANDY that the newspapers Zink worked for-the Toronto Telegram and the Toronto Sun have been bought by Pierre-Karl Peladeau? How handy that the old columns written by Zink exposing Trudope have mostly fallen into the hands of the FORMER LEADER of the BLOC Quebecois-who realizes that the new Republic of Quebec that he hopes to build will need heroes and who better than Our Pet? Just so long as his WARTS DON’T SHOW! But 35 years of Zink columns have not been entirely erased or forgotten by Cdns-and LIE-berals can hide the most of words but they cannot make us forget!

And we just cannot have a brave new Quebec nation naming the leader of its first family as a jew baiter and Commie agent now can we! Much better to follow the LIE-beral line and DENY! DELAY! DELUDE! DISMISS! HIDE the truth! And how angry LIE-berals and Hogs must be that arrogant to the last Pierre gave all that WRITTEN PROOF to the Nemnis! After all, most of those who knew Our Pet best are now dead and gone-silenced-just as LIE-berals desire! After all, this is WHY Our brainless Boy admires the way Red CHINA gets things done! In China the PARTY writes the history-just as wanna-be LIE-berals are trying to do! And then Our arrogant Pet hands over all that DAMNING EVIDENCE to biographers!

And what of the younger generation of Trudopes? What of Sacha? With his strong loyalty to revolutionary Iran and its Ayatollahs? He has made anti American/anti Western/anti Israel propaganda films with the help of Iranian tv. And what of his gag inducing `love letter` to bloody handed Cuban leader Castro? The letter was printed-with a straight face- by doorknobs at Toronto Red Star newspaper-and then picked up and MOCKED relentlessly by writers at National Post!

And what of Justin? He has implemented a MASSIVE spending program that is a near DUPLICATE of that created by Bob (Boob) Rae-that brought us Rae Days and DOUBLED our provincial debt in a few short years! Do LIE-berals really want to tell us that Justin-that Boy with nice hair for Brains is so stupid-along with his advisors-that NONE of them have noticed the resemblance to the Rae plan? Or should we just assume that Justin REALLY IS just like his father-an aspiring despot who wants to lead Canada into the future via radical socialism? And Justin apparently plans to grab power amidst the economic chaos of a bankrupt Canada? Just like a common third world despot? How else to explain such fiscal madness?

The Toronto Red Star Newspaper has even written an analysis of the Yankee Roosevelt New Deal in which U.S. govt embarked on major spending to `stimulate` the economy in the Great Depression. Even the Red Star admits that the U.S. economy fell right back where it had been just as soon as the spending stimulus ended! LIE-beral loving Star writers have tried to muddy the waters by suggesting the stimulus package did not work as it should have because it may not have been large enough-but the larger stimulus package didn’t work for Rae either and the recent economic news says massive spending ain’t working for Justin either! Justin Trudope and his followers KNOW ALL THIS! And they don’t care-all they want is MORE POWER and MORE GRAVY!

When Adolf Hitler was ELECTED Chancellor of Germany, he then did a deal with Christian Democrat politicians to become dictator with their help. And now we have Our brainless Boy becoming prime minister with the help of civil service Hog unions-who are GETTING PAID to like and support LIE-berals-in much the same fashion as Christian Democrats with Hitler!

Even that staunch LIE-beral prime minister Mackenzie King met PERSONALLY with Hitler and came back to Canada to assure us Hitler was a “dour but basically good man who was giving the German people some much needed hope and discipline”! LIE-beral judgement in many things is POOR!

And what of King retiring with a pension supplied by the Rockefeller Foundation? Or LIE-beral “Minister of Everything” C.D. Howe? He spent long weekends socializing with Rockefeller`s and Vanderbilt`s and Morgans etc-until King retired and the LIE-beral star dimmed-and people had no further use for Howe!

Isn’t it funny how times have changed? LIE-berals used to BOAST of their connections to Yankee business men-back in the days BEFORE LIE-berals became tax and spend maniacs!

And now modern LIE-berals and their Hog allies care nothing for Communists or Nazis and have no concerns about a Trudope in an ancient uniform from a long ago time. No, modern LIE-berals are only interested in gravy-just like German Social Democrats! But history repeats itself as some famous person has told us and LIE-berals may come to regret their impulses once all the economic news hits home! Just like Christian Democrats!

And really, its obvious that LIE-berals DON’T WANT proof-they just want to censor and silence ANY dissenting voice-and to rewrite our history to suit themselves-just like Justin`s Red Chinese idols!
