This week we welcome Liz LeClair, in a fast paced and informative episode where we discuss how Canada is behind when it comes taking our role in standing up against gender based violence.  

A columnist, leading fundraiser and volunteer with Can't Buy My Silence, Liz explains how NDAs have become weapons that protect abusers while re-traumatizing survivors. We dig into the disturbing evolution of non-disclosure agreements from their initial intention of preventing trade secrets to how they’ve been used silencing victims of harassment and assault.

These are difficult subjects and this episode handles each topic in an open, honest and unfiltered fashion that we feel our listeners enjoy most. We are hoping Dalhousie president Dr. Kim Brooks and the Honourable Premier Tim Houston can tune into as we want Nova Scotia to be the second province that puts steeper restrictions on NDAs. We’re already behind PEI on this!

To learn more or take action, visit Can't Buy My Silence online, sign their petition, or ask your business to take their pledge committing not to use NDAs in cases of harassment or assault.

Afternoon Pint stands firmly against violence against women! We need to keep this conversation going and make sure we are doing everything we can to protect one another out there… Please share this episode!
