Investment in the OFOVC compared to the Office of the Correctional Investigator is a strong indicator of the overall position of #VictimsofCrime and #VictimRights in Canada. Learn more: bit.ly/3SXXMBC #Victims #Worthy #Equity
As we await the upcoming budget announcement, our thoughts are with the victims who stand to benefit from potential funding. Every allocation is a step towards empowerment, justice and respect. Stay tuned as we hope for positive news. #VictimsRights #BudgetWatch

Protection from online hate & violence, as well as issues of child exploitation, need to be urgently addressed. Read the Ombud's statement on the proposed Online Harms Act (Bill C-63): bit.ly/4aNlcRs @dayofpink
The Correctional Investigator stated that the OFOVC requires supporting legislation & a budget like theirs. We manage complaints from victims, and the #OCI manages complaints from the people who harmed them, but with significantly more resources. bit.ly/3SXXMBC #Worthy
Before accessing Elder-Assisted Hearings, non-indigenous offenders should be required to request consent from the person they harmed if the victim is Indigenous. More on our recommendations to improve support for victims: bit.ly/3SXXMBC #Victims #Worthy
Hate has no place in our communities. It is our duty as community members to be there for others - to SPEAK UP for those who cannot or will not. When we as a “community” remain silent, we are all victims! @TorontoPolice
As #Ramadan comes to an end, we wish everyone celebrating #EidAlFitr, a safe and blessed #EidMubarak full of healing and joy.

L’ombudsman des victimes d’actes criminels, Ben Roebuck, comprend la disproportion de la haine envers les groupes racialisés, les femmes, la communauté LGBTQI+ et les minorités religieuses en et hors ligne. On a discuté de l’impact de la Loi sur les préjudices en ligne contre ça.
As Ombudsperson for Victims of Crime, Ben Roebuck understands that racialized peoples, women, the LGBTQIA+ community, and religious minorities face a disproportionate amount of hate on and offline. We discussed just that and how our Online Harms Act will help to counter hate.
Encouraged by initiatives like this. The acknowledgment of extensive issues followed by investigative action: "It's shocking how often victim rights are ignored. Survivors experience retraumatization and can feel disposable once their testimony is heard. newswire.ca/news-releases/…

This is an exciting development. We have so far to go in creating systems that are safe, accessible, and effective for victim-survivors. Our legal system so often fails and our sport system is even worse. Looking forward to seeing what innovations this investigation puts forward!

Persistence is key. I have all the faith in @BenjRoebuck and the @OFOVC team to ensure victim-survivors aren't further traumatized by a patriarchal system designed to keep them quiet about what happened to them. For once, let the rights of the victim matter more than the perp's.
What a moment for Suvivors of sexual violence! We are being heard and things are about to change for the better @KellyFavro @MorrellAndrews @SurvivorSafety
Today, we celebrate the incredible achievements of women worldwide and reflect on the ongoing challenges they face and the work that still lies ahead. We stand in solidarity with women everywhere, working tirelessly to promote economic justice for survivors of Economic Abuse.
