Quotes[edit]

  • We have a responsibility – as an online community, as Canadians and as leaders – to stamp out cyberviolence.
    That’s why the Department for Women and Gender Equality is working with partners across the country to prevent and eliminate cyberviolence.

    Cyberviolence is the use of social media, cell phones and other electronic devices to do harm. It is often repetitive. It is often anonymous. And it has serious and dire consequences.
    Ready for a few examples? Looking at the Twitter feeds of women in leadership, I came across a trove of online violence and hate.

About[edit]
