“The Walrus Talks Gender-Based Violence will delve into how this violence impacts all Canadians, whether they know it or not. As Jake Stika, one of this evening’s speakers, told me, ‘the paper cuts of patriarchy hurt everyone. ’ I hope you can join us for a thoughtful and imperative conversation on what needs to change.” —Emma Mackenzie-Hillier, Event Manager
