Q:
So many young performers like Taylor Swift don’t want to identify as feminists.
Why is that?
A:
What is the bad connotation with feminism? When women have full control of
their bodies, when women get paid exactly the same as men, when everything that
happens for men happens for women, I can stop calling myself a feminist.
AND..
READER’S
CORNER
‘How
many of you are feminists?’
I
remember being in high school in Mr. Plato’s Global History class when he
point-blank asked the students: “How many of you are feminists?"
Only
about three of us raised our hands. Plato told them all they were doorknobs (or
something to that effect, lovingly) and explained that feminism is the basic b
elief in equality, something the other kids had never considered before.
Kids
aren’t taught about feminism — not what it actually is, anyway. They close
their eyes and imagine feminists as fat lesbians, frothing at the mouth and
hating men while they stuff their faces with three-day-old tuna casserole.
They
don’t think of their mothers, struggling to make the same pay as the men at
work. They don’t see their older sisters dealing with misogyny each and every
day as a university student. They don’t see their neighbour being raped, their
best friend b eing turned down for jobs, or their grandmother being forced to
stay home because that was her “place."
Kids
need to know what feminism is, because feminism is how we’re all going to make
our world a better place. Making each group equal is how we move beyond issues
like what’s happening in our university system, in or our political system, in
or our workplaces and in our schools.
You
have to teach people when they are young that all people deserve equal respect,
or else you’ll lose them. Why are kids in their first year of university so
quick to accept a sexist chant? Because they don’t know any better, and that’s
our fault.
We
have to do better for the girls and the boys, or else the next generation will
lose something that’s been essential in shaping the current generation: the
ongoing fight for gender equality.

John
Baird’s speech to the United Nations General Assembly
by
macleans.ca on Monday, September 30, 2013 10:41am
Foreign
Affairs Minister John Baird addressed the 68th Session of the United Nations
General Assembly on Sept. 30, 2013 in New York City. Here is a copy of his
speech, for the record:
As
we gather near Ground Zero, site of the World Trade Center mass murder, I wish
first to honour the victims of terrorism:
I
honour all victims, everywhere, including those killed and wounded at the
Westgate Shopping Mall in Nairobi.
Tragically,
we lost two Canadians, including a Canadian diplomat.
There
is no more fitting venue to honour the life of Annemarie Desloges and her
service than right here, in front of these United Nations.
The
crime of terror is an assault on all people.
And,
in its wake, the human family is one.
One
in pain. One in mourning. One in our resolve that evil will never triumph.
At
this moment of grief, the oneness of humankind is the theme of my remarks
today.
Allow
me to begin with an observation drawn from the Canadian experience.
The
Province of Newfoundland and Labrador was the last province to join Canada, but
it is the site of the earliest known European settlement in the New World.
L’Anse aux Meadows is more than a thousand years old.
We
consider the province’s capital city, St. John’s, to be the oldest English
settlement in North America, dating back to 1497.
The
early Newfoundland settlements are the subject of significant archeological
activity. Among the artifacts commonly found is a three-handled drinking mug,
known as a “tyg.”
The
three handles are designed for sharing. During the 17th century, it was common
to share eating and drinking utensils.
Further
research reveals the tyg mug is not unique to Canadian and English history. On
the contrary, cups with three or more handles are common to many of the world’s
cultures. Indeed, nearly three millennia ago, Homer wrote in the Iliad of a
multi-handled mug.
The
tyg and its many counterparts around the world are tangible reminders not just
that eating and drinking are social activities but that, as long as human
beings have inhabited this planet, sustenance and the necessaries of life have
been community endeavours.
Human
beings share from necessity. We cooperate to survive. We form communities because
that is our natural state.
As
Cicero observed, “We were born to unite with our fellow men, and to join in
community with the human race.”
Animated
by the same spirit of community, the Charter of the United Nations declares
that our goals include “to live together,” to be “neighbours,” and “to unite.”
The
very first words of the UN Charter make clear that this organization is a body
of, by and for human beings.
It
begins, “We the peoples of the United Nations.”
Not
“We the countries.”
Or “We
the governments.”
Not
“We the political leaders.”
“We
the peoples.”
An
important reminder of why and on whose behalf we are here.
Here
at the UN, Canada targets its efforts on securing tangible results for the
human family. It is much more important to consider what the United Nations is
achieving than how the UN arranges its affairs.
Canada’s
government doesn’t seek to have our values or our principled foreign policy
validated by elites who would rather “go along to get along.”
The
billions who are hungry, or lack access to clean water, or are displaced or
cannot read and write do not care how many members sit on the Security Council.
But they do need to know that their brothers and sisters in humankind will walk
with them through the darkness.
Peace,
prosperity and freedom—these are indeed the conditions that have been sought by
human communities from the beginning of recorded time: To live in peace. To
live in prosperity. To live in freedom.
Of
these priorities, peace is the foremost objective of the United Nations.
It
is no surprise that the UN Charter mentions the word “peace” four dozen times.
Sadly,
“peace” the word is easier to locate than “peace” the condition.
Since
the moment this organization was created, not a day has passed without the
human family being pained by war somewhere on this planet.
Almost
always, the suffering is felt by the most vulnerable among us.
And,
far too often, this involves women and violence.
In
the context of war, rape and serious sexual violence are war crimes. I have met
girls who were victims of this very war crime, and their stories are horrific.
The war criminals involved must be identified, pursued, prosecuted and
punished.
Earlier
this year, Canada and other G-8 nations agreed to treat sexual violence in
conflict as a violation of the Geneva Conventions. I applaud the United Kingdom
and U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague for their work in this area. But he
would be the first to acknowledge that the fight to eradicate this crime has
been led by women, including Special Representative [of the UN
Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict] Zainab Hawa Bangura.
Every
year, millions of girls, some as young as age nine, are forced into marriage.
Since
I began these remarks, 100 children have been forced into marriage; 1,100 per
hour; more than 26,000 per day.
The
effects of early forced marriage are documented and beyond dispute. Early
forced marriage harms health, halts education, destroys opportunity and
enslaves young women in a life of poverty.
A
young woman once recounted her wedding date. She remembered, “It was the day I
left school.”
No
country is immune from this scourge.
This
is a global problem. A problem for humanity.
Forced
marriage is rape; it is violence against women. Early forced marriage is child
rape, violence against young girls. The practice is abhorrent and indefensible.
We
condemn it.
Even
though some might prefer that we kept quiet.
The
discomfort of the audience is of small concern, particularly in the context of
a crime that calls to heaven for justice.
If
this body does not act to protect young girls, who will?
Another
way to protect the vulnerable is to improve the health of mothers, newborns and
children so that we can reduce the number of deaths.
I am
proud that our Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, has led a global effort—the
Muskoka Initiative—to reduce maternal and infant mortality and to improve the
health of mothers and children in the world’s poorest countries. It’s about
half of the world’s population; all of its potential.
While
these efforts—to eradicate sexual violence in conflict, to eliminate early forced
marriage and to improve maternal and newborn health—are essential, we must do
more than react to crises.
We
must invest in opportunities for women and girls.
We
must ensure that women participate fully in all parts of our society and in all
the countries of these United Nations. This will help us build a stronger, more
secure, more prosperous and more peaceful world.
It
is in every nation’s self-interest to ensure every young girl realizes her full
potential.
And
it is from the perspective of the human family, one family, that we must
address other threats to peace and security.
Among
the most urgent crises remains the violence in Syria.
Canada’s
position is clear. We support the Syrian people, the innocent people caught up
in this senseless violence, and those who work on their behalf. We will never
support a brutal and illegitimate regime that has unleashed weapons of mass
destruction on its own people. Nor will we tolerate extremism and terrorism as
alternatives to Assad’s tyranny.
The
people of Canada have been generous in helping those most in need.
When
success is achieved, it is important to recognize it. The near-impossible work
of the UN World Food Programme must be applauded, and Canada has responded by
being the second-largest single-country donor in the world. Their work in Syria
is paramount and has not gone unnoticed. I also commend the work of the UNHCR
[United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees] in providing assistance to the
refugees fleeing this terrible conflict, and the generosity of Syria’s
neighbours in providing safe haven.
Canada
joins the entire world in seeking a political resolution to the conflict.
Canada supports a peaceful, democratic and pluralistic Syria that protects the
rights of all communities.
But
let us not confuse a peaceful, negotiated outcome with equivocation or moral
uncertainty. There can be no moral ambiguity about the use of chemical weapons
on civilians.
Today,
September 30, is a dark reminder of the price of accommodation with evil.
It
is the 75th anniversary of the Munich Agreement, by which Czechoslovakia’s
freedom was sacrificed to appease the Nazi regime. The appeasers claimed they
had won “peace for our time.” In fact, their abandoning of principle was a
calamity for the world.
Nobel
Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor who was imprisoned in
Auschwitz, has been even more blunt:
“Neutrality
helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never
the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered,
when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become
irrelevant.”
Just
as we are not neutral or silent on the crimes being committed against the
Syrian people, neither is Canada neutral on Israel’s right to exist and to
defend itself.
There
can be no bargaining over Israel’s existence. While dialogue is a virtue, there
can be no virtuous discussion with anyone wedded to Israel’s destruction.
Today,
the Jewish people are masters of their own fate, like other nations, in their
own sovereign Jewish state. Like other nations, Israel has the right to defend
itself, by itself.
Canada
fundamentally believes peace is achievable. That Palestinians and Israelis and
their neighbours can live side by side, in peace and security.
We,
like many nations, wish to see a prosperous Palestinian state living in peace
with its Jewish neighbour.
That’s
why, although we sometimes have fundamental differences on how statehood is
achieved, Canada is providing significant assistance to build the institutions
that are vital to the establishment of a viable future state. In the West Bank,
Canada is contributing greatly to economic, security and justice initiatives.
Recent
developments in negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority are
encouraging. I salute the leadership and courage of the Israeli Prime Minister
[Benjamin Netanyahu] and the Palestinian Authority’s President [Mahmoud Abbas].
I
commend U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry for his leadership in this area, and
we must all commit ourselves to this cause, united by the prospect of peace.
I
look forward to the day when Israeli and Palestinian children can live side by
side in peace and security in a Jewish and a Palestinian state.
Ladies
and gentlemen, dialogue is important, yes. But our dialogue must be a prelude
to action. And action must mean achieving results and making a difference.
Take
the recent statements coming from the regime in Iran.
Some
observers see encouraging signs, but sound bites do not remove threats to
global security. Kind words, a smile and a charm offensive are not a substitute
for real action.
We
will welcome and acknowledge reform, if and when it comes.
By
this we will know when genuine reform has occurred: Has there been real,
measurable, material improvement in the lives of the Iranian people and in the
security of the world?
Not
yet!
We
will judge the regime on the basis of its action and results.
The
P5+1 [the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany] has
had five rounds of formal negotiations with Iran in the past two years. While
everyone says the meetings have been “productive,” the fact remains we haven’t
seen any change in Iran’s actions.
Next
year, nothing would make Canada more pleased than to see a change in Iran’s
nuclear ambitions. A change to its terrible human rights record. And an end to
Iran’s material support for terrorism.
Now
is the time for the global community to maintain tough sanctions against Iran
in order that it take a different path on its nuclear program.
The
Iranian people want peace. And the Iranian people are suffering great hardship
because of their government.
Canada
wants the Iranian people to be able to access a life of freedom and prosperity
for themselves.
And
how do we as a human family achieve and maintain prosperity?
Through
free trade among open societies operating under transparent, consistent and
fair rules.
Canada
continues to diversify its markets because it is a trading nation.
We
are aggressively pursuing free trade agreements with other nations.
Bounded
by three oceans, with the second-largest land mass in the world, Canada
literally is open to the world.
We
are both deepening existing economic relationships and building new ones.
Whether with China, now Canada’s second-largest trading partner, or the ASEAN
[Association of Southeast Asian Nations] countries, where Canadian trade and
investment ties are dramatically increasing, or the Pacific Alliance, which
provides new and exciting opportunities, or the European Union, where we are
negotiating a comprehensive free trade agreement, Canada and Canadians are
supporting market liberalization. In the process, ordinary lives are becoming
enriched, and entire societies are becoming stronger.
But
the quest for prosperity must never come at the expense of our commitment to
freedom.
Prosperity
is also inextricably linked to peace. After all, those who lack security usually
lack the means to provide for themselves and their families.
With
economic opportunity, a fruit vendor in Tunisia may not have felt compelled to
end his life seeking the dignity to provide for his family.
A
young man in Afghanistan may never feel compelled to join terrorist elements
simply to raise his children—to ensure their lives are better than the one he
lived.
I
will always remember the seven-year old girl I met at Zaatari refugee camp in
Jordan. Her parents had made the difficult decision to leave their home and to
seek refuge in another country—braving hardship because they were motivated,
like all parents, by the desire to keep their family safe.
I
asked how she was doing. With tears in her eyes, she said, simply, “I don’t
like it here. I want to go home.”
Heart-wrenching.
And
millions of people are in the same tragic position—millions of members of the
human family who cannot even begin to contemplate prosperity until a more basic
need, their need for security, is addressed.
The
global family will never achieve the prosperity that is our full potential
unless we address the peace and security concerns that shackle human
opportunity.
Everyone
has an interest in contributing to the solution, because peace and security
ultimately ensure the freedom of the individual. That’s why we need the people
of these United Nations gathered here to promote this freedom.
For
the people of these United Nations, no minority is more sacred than the
individual, and the freedom of the individual.
Freedom
from oppression. Freedom from discrimination. Freedom to worship, to think, to
speak, to love, to believe. Freedom to be.
Human
freedom can be exercised, and sadly limited, in countless ways.
Religious
persecution continues in too many places.
Since
we gathered here last year, the world has witnessed:
•bombings
of mosques in Iraq and Pakistan and a Catholic church in Tanzania;
•attacks
against Hindu, Buddhist and Muslim places of worship in Burma and Bangladesh;
•the
bloody persecution of Christians in Syria;
•attacks
on Coptic Christian churches in Egypt;
•attacks
on a mosque and on a Catholic church in Sri Lanka;
•the
detention of Sri Lankan Muslim leader Azad Sally;
•the
murders of Catholic worshippers in Nigeria; and
•the
Iranian regime’s ongoing persecution of the Bahá’í.
Canada
just this year opened an Office of Religious Freedom. Its mandate: to promote
freedom of religion and belief as a foreign policy priority. To combat the
enslavement into fear, by those who seek to intimidate and undermine the right
to worship freely. In peace—and in harmony.
We
reject the pernicious notion that human dignity can be sliced up,
compartmentalized or compromised.
In a
pluralistic society it is impossible to protect some human rights and freedoms
while infringing others.
All
freedoms are rooted in the inherent dignity of human beings.
Whether
the issue is religious freedom, sexual freedom, political freedom or any other
freedom, some people ask:
What
business is it of ours? What interest do we have in events outside our borders?
Our
business is a shared humanity. Our interest is the dignity of humankind.
Many
assaults on human dignity have common roots. I refer to neo-fascist ideology,
masquerading in different forms, and the threat that it poses to individual
freedom.
I
spoke earlier of the anniversary of the Munich Agreement.
What
the signatories claimed as a triumph of practical politics was in fact a craven
capitulation that betrayed human dignity and bankrupted the peace it purported
to secure.
It
was wrong then to underestimate and to appease fascism, just as it is now to
underestimate its modern incarnation.
Extremism
that subjugates human dignity and crushes individual freedom beneath rigid
ideology must be opposed for what it is.
One
year ago today, the world lost the great Somali poet known as Gaarriye. Though
his pen has been silenced, the inspiring lyrics remain.
It
was Gaarriye who wrote:
“And
tell them this: our purpose is peace; our password ‘Freedom’;
Our
aim, equality;
Our way the way of light.”
In
other words: Peace. Prosperity. Freedom. Three universal human priorities.
Like
three handles of a mug from which we all drink. Three values that all humanity
shares.
As I
close, I cannot help but reflect on three young girls, and my heart breaks for
them:
The
child bride: “It was the day I left school.”
The
girl who was a victim of rape and sexual violence.
The
refugee: “I want to go home.”
We
are not here to achieve results for governments or political leaders.
We
are here to protect and defend these three girls and seven billion other
members of the human family. Let us remember this as we embark on discussions
to shape a new global agenda, focusing on those most in need.
I am
confident that everyone here feels the overwhelming honour and privilege it is
to serve our people. It is not without great challenge and responsibility. But
we all must stand up and deliver on this unique mandate for the people, for it
is the people who expect nothing less.
Thank
you.

Shunned by the tribe: HIV/AIDS among American Indians
and Alaska Natives

Any
views expressed in this article are those of the author and not of Thomson
Reuters Foundation.
When
Isadore Boni was diagnosed with HIV, he was a 35-year-old social worker living
and working on the San Carlos Apache reservation in Arizona. A full-blooded
Apache, Isadore was shunned by his tribe because of his HIV status. He slept on
the streets of Phoenix for two years as he struggled to cope with his illness
and the stigma associated with being HIV-positive.
He’s
just one example of how the HIV/AIDS epidemic has hit American Indians and
Alaska Natives harder than other groups in the U.S. Native populations have
higher rates of HIV/AIDS compared with white Americans. But stigma and a small
population size contribute to a culture of silence. Missing data on the actual
number of American Indians and Alaska natives living with HIV/AIDS adds to the
problem.
America’s
5 million American Indians and Alaska Natives make up 1.7 percent of the U.S.
population and less than 1 percent of new HIV cases. But proportionally, more
American Indians and Alaska Natives are living with the virus than white
Americans. The rate of HIV is 30 percent higher and the rate of AIDS is 50 percent
higher among American Indians and Alaska Natives compared with white Americans,
according to the Department of Health and Human Service’s Office of
Minority Health.
These
numbers are likely underestimates. Nearly one-third of HIV-positive American
Indians were misclassified as another race in public health HIV surveillance
systems, according to a study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). Seventy percent of HIV-positive American Indians were
classified as white and nearly 20 percent as Hispanic, in the CDC study.
“There’s
a lot of racial misclassification when it comes to American Indians,” says
Pamela Jumper-Thurman, project director of the Committee
to Action for Seventh Generation Awareness and Education HIV/AIDS Prevention
Project in Colorado. Jumper-Thurman is a member of the Western Cherokee tribe
and one of few American Indian scientists studying the HIV epidemic in native
populations.
She
argues that the number of HIV-positive American Indians and Alaska Natives is
higher than the numbers reported by the CDC. “The CDC uses information that the
states send them,” she says, “but for the most part, American Indians use Indian
Health Services and that data may never reach the CDC.”
Indian
Health Services (IHS) is the federally-funded program that provides health care
to approximately half of the nation’s indigenous population. Some tribes
operate their own health facilities. But many HIV-positive American Indians and
Alaska Natives choose not to access care at IHS or tribal facilities for fear
of their HIV status being revealed.
Tommy
Chesbro was diagnosed with HIV in 1986 and initially traveled out of state for
HIV care. “For three years I would go from my home in Oklahoma to Kansas to get
my blood work done for fear of anyone in Oklahoma finding out,” he says.
Chesbro is of Cherokee and Lumbee heritage and now speaks publicly about
HIV/AIDS in hopes of raising awareness among his community.
Tommy’s
diagnosis allowed him to access care and take control of his health. But 25
percent of American Indians and Alaska Natives living with HIV are unaware of
their infection, according to the CDC. That’s higher than the 18 percent of
Americans who have undiagnosed HIV/AIDS.
Shana
Cozad, who belongs to the Kiowa tribe, believes stigma prevents people from
getting tested. “You hear of people being disowned by their tribes because they
have HIV,” she says. Shana was 21 and a new mother when she was diagnosed with
HIV in 1993.
“I
even had my own stigma about who gets the disease and what they might look
like,” she says. “I wasn’t an I.V. drug user, I hadn’t slept around and didn’t
associate myself with those kinds of people.” Shana tested positive for HIV
after her boyfriend revealed he had AIDS.
Late
diagnosis may be why many American Indians and Alaska Natives learn of their
infection when they have already progressed to AIDS. Studies show that being
diagnosed later leads to an earlier death. And despite vast improvements in HIV
treatments since the epidemic began in 1981, American Indians and Alaska
Natives suffer worse outcomes compared with other racial and ethnic groups in
the U.S.
Poverty
rates among American Indians and Alaska Natives are higher than any other group
in the U.S., a known risk factor for HIV infection. More than a quarter of the
native population lives in poverty compared with 14.3 percent of Americans over
all, according to census data. In some urban areas, 50 percent of American
Indians are living in poverty.
High
rates of untreated sexually transmitted infections among the population are a
concern for the continued spread of HIV. “We have very high STD rates,” says
Jumper-Thurman, “especially chlamydia and gonorrhea.” Rates of gonorrhea are
almost five times higher than rates for white Americans, according to the CDC.
Isadore
is now an active HIV/AIDS advocate. He worked with the San Carlos Apache tribal
council to pass a law that protects the confidentiality of people living with
HIV. But he hopes for a future where HIV-positive American Indians and Alaska
Natives are able to speak openly about their status.
“We’re
an invisible population compared to the rest of America,” he says.
Until
HIV-positive American Indians and Alaska Natives are properly accounted for in
HIV surveillance systems, they will continue to be the invisible side of the
HIV/AIDS epidemic.

served as a disease detective in the Epidemic Intelligence Service at the U.S.

Welcome
to Cybertip.ca
Canada’s
tipline to report the online sexual exploitation of children
About
Cybertip.ca
The Canadian
Centre for Child Protection is a charitable organization dedicated
to the personal safety of all children. Our goal is to reduce child
victimization by providing national programs and services to the Canadian
public. The Canadian Centre for Child Protection operates Cybertip.ca, Canada's
tipline for reporting the online sexual exploitation of children. The tipline
has been in operation since September 26, 2002 and was adopted under the
Government of Canada’s National Strategy for the Protection of Children from
Sexual Exploitation on the Internet in May 2004.
When
Bill C-22, An Act Respecting the Mandatory Reporting of Internet Child
Pornography by Persons who Provide an Internet Service, came into force on
December 8, 2011, the Canadian Centre for Child Protection (through our
Cybertip.ca program) was named the designated reporting entity under section 2.
This federal legislation requires all persons who provide an Internet service
to report any incident of Internet child pornography.
As
Canada’s tipline, Cybertip.ca’s mandate is to protect children from online
sexual exploitation by:
·
Receiving
and processing tips from the public about potentially illegal material, as well
as activities regarding the online sexual exploitation of children, and
referring any relevant leads to the appropriate law enforcement agency and/or
child welfare agency; and
·
Providing
the public with information and other resources, as well as support and
referral services, to help Canadians keep themselves and their families safe
while using the Internet.
Cybertip.ca
receives and addresses online and telephone reports from the public regarding:
·
Child
pornography (child abuse images and material)
·
Online
luring
·
Child
exploitation through prostitution
·
Travelling
to sexually exploit children
·
Child
trafficking
·
Making
sexually explicit material available to a child
·
Agreement
or arrangement with another person to commit a sexual offence against a child
For
more information on these incident types, please click here.
On
average, Cybertip.ca receives over 2,000 reports and 75,000 page views per
month. All reports that pertain to incidents that appear to be in contravention
of the Criminal Code (Canada) are sent to law enforcement for possible
investigation. Any information regarding a child potentially in need of
protection is forwarded to the appropriate child welfare agency.
Child
Sexual Abuse – It is your business
Technology
has revolutionized our connectivity to one another and made the world accessible
in unprecedented ways. At the same time, it has had a profound impact on
children in terms of sexual abuse and exploitation. Effectively dealing with
these types of crimes against children poses significant challenges.
In
recent years, our efforts have shifted to reflect the reality of how child
pornography is produced. Child sexual abuse begins offline - in homes and even
child-serving organizations within our communities - and only thereafter,
through a recording of the abuse, ends up on the Internet as child abuse images
and videos.
Child
sexual abuse is a serious problem within our society and occurs more frequently
than people realize. Adults bear the responsibility for safeguarding and
protecting children from sexual abuse – as such it is important understand what
child sexual abuse is and to recognize behaviour that may signal a child in
distress if we are going to address this issue at its core.
Informed
by the reports made to Cybertip.ca, the Canadian Centre for Child Protection
created a child sexual abuse prevention program, Commit
to Kids, specifically tailored to assist child-serving organizations
create safer environments for the children in their care. Research shows that
the majority of offenders do not have a criminal record. The Commit to Kids
program provides organizations with a step-by-step plan using a risk-management
approach that goes far beyond criminal record and child abuse registry checks
to prevent child sexual abuse.
What
is sexual abuse?
The
sexual abuse of children includes a wide range of behaviours and situations.
Offences can vary from non-contact sexual offences (such as exposing a child to
sexually explicit acts) to contact offences (such as touching or fondling the genital
area). Offences can occur with or without the use of violence, and may also
involve the use of technology, for example, the creation of child sexual abuse
images through photography.
·
Examples of sexual abuse involving contact:
·
Touching
or fondling genital area
·
Touching
or fondling breasts
·
Forcing
or encouraging contact with another’s genital area
·
Oral
sex or stimulation
·
Vaginal
or anal intercourse
·
Vaginal
or anal penetration with an object or finger
·
Examples of sexual abuse not involving contact:
·
Encouraging
or forcing a child to masturbate
·
Voyeurism
(“Peeping Tom”)
·
Exposing
a child to pornography and/or child pornography
·
Encouraging
or forcing a child to watch others masturbate
·
Exposing
a child to adults engaging in sexually explicit acts
·
Invitation
to sexual touching online and/or offline
·
Online
luring to meet for a sexual encounter
·
Asking
a child sexually intrusive questions or making sexual comments towards a child
·
“Flashing”
or exposing genitals to a child
How
can you increase your child’s safety?
·
Learn
more about the issue of child sexual abuse and grooming
The
sexual victimization of children involves many dynamics. It can include abuse
by acquaintances, family members, or strangers. When children are groomed by an
acquaintance or family member they are less likely to disclose the abuse. It is
important to understand the dynamics of sexual abuse and the role of grooming
— how to possibly prevent abuse and how to recognize signs of misconduct in
order to intervene as soon as possible.
·
Establish
and reinforce boundaries with your child
Establish
and reinforce the role of your child within the family. If your child wants to
listen to adult conversations about adult decision-making and adult-related
topics, gently re-establish boundaries. When boundaries are blurred between the
adults and children, children are more vulnerable to exploitation and abuse.
·
Monitor
your child’s exposure to adult content and topics
Set
limits with regard to the multimedia content that your child is exposed to,
including television, music, Internet, games, etc. Although your child may have
an interest in adult information, set limits about what s/he views for the
purpose of reducing exposure to content that s/he is not developmentally ready
to process.
·
Avoid
involving your child in adult relationship issues
Involving
your child in adult relationship issues can cause her/him confusion and
emotional stress. Keeping these issues separate from your child draws an
important line between her/his role and your role - which helps build the
child’s sense of security.
·
Foster
self-awareness by taking your child’s lead when it comes to physical affection
Remember
that teaching respect does not mean teaching obedience. Foster self-awareness
in your child by taking her/his lead when it comes to physical affection.
Respect your child’s right to make decisions about touching.
·
Establish
and reinforce personal space and privacy within your home
Establish
family privacy for using the bathroom, bathing and changing. Designate a
personal space in the home for each person’s belongings (a bedroom, closet,
drawers or shelves, etc.).

Cyberaide.ca
Le Centre canadien de protection de l’enfance est un
organisme caritatif voué à la sécurité personnelle des enfants. Notre but est
de réduire la violence faite aux enfants par l'entremise de programmes et de
services nationaux destinés à la population canadienne. Le Centre canadien de
protection de l’enfance gère Cyberaide.ca, la centrale canadienne de
signalement des cas d’exploitation sexuelle d’enfants sur Internet. En service
depuis le 26 septembre 2002, Cyberaide.ca a été intégrée en mai 2004 à la Stratégie
nationale du gouvernement du Canada pour la protection des enfants contre
l’exploitation sexuelle sur Internet.
Lorsque
le projet de loi C-22, Loi concernant la déclaration obligatoire de la
pornographie juvénile sur Internet par les personnes qui fournissent des
services Internet, est entré en vigueur le 8 décembre 2011, le Centre
canadien de protection de l’enfance (par l’entremise de son programme
Cyberaide.ca) a été désigné comme point de signalement pour l’application de
l’article 2. Cette loi fédérale oblige toutes les personnes qui fournissent des
services internet à signaler tous les incidents de pornographie juvénile sur
Internet.
Pour
remplir son mandat de protéger les enfants contre l’exploitation sexuelle sur
Internet et en sa qualité de centrale canadienne de signalement, Cyberaide.ca :
·
reçoit
et traite les signalements du public relativement à du matériel potentiellement
illégal et à des activités liées à l’exploitation sexuelle d’enfants, et
transmet toutes les informations pertinentes à l’instance policière ou à
l’agence de protection de l’enfance concernée;
·
offre
aux Canadiennes et aux Canadiens un centre d’information, de ressources et
d’orientation pour les aider à assurer leur sécurité et celle de leurs enfants
sur Internet.
Cyberaide.ca
reçoit et traite par Internet et par téléphone des signalements venant du
public concernant les activités suivantes :
·
Pornographie
juvénile (images d’abus pédosexuels)
·
Leurre
par Internet
·
Prostitution
d’enfants
·
Tourisme
pédophile
·
Trafic
d’enfants
·
Rendre
accessible à un enfant du matériel sexuellement explicite
·
Entente
ou arrangement avec une autre personne en vue de commettre une infraction
d’ordre sexuel à l’égard d’un enfant
Pour
plus de détails sur ces types
d’incident, cliquez
ici.
Cyberaide.ca
reçoit 2 000 signalements et cumule 75 000 pages vues en moyenne par mois. Tout
signalement concernant un incident jugé contraire au Code criminel du
Canada est renvoyé à la police en vue d’une enquête éventuelle. Toute
information concernant un enfant qui pourrait avoir besoin de protection est
retransmise au service compétent de protection de l’enfance.
Abus
pédosexuels
La
technologie transforme les rapports humains et créé une ouverture sans
précédent sur le monde. Elle a aussi des répercussions profondes sur les
enfants en les exposant aux abus sexuels et à l’exploitation sexuelle. Combattre
efficacement cette forme de criminalité contre l’enfance n’est pas chose
facile.
Depuis
quelques années, Cyberaide.ca s’emploie davantage à faire prendre conscience du
contexte qui entoure la production de la pornographie juvénile. Les abus
pédosexuels commencent en dehors d’Internet, dans nos quartiers et même des
organismes fréquentés par nos enfants; c’est là que ces abus sont enregistrés,
et ce n’est qu’après qu’ils sont perpétués sur Internet sous la forme de photos
et de vidéos.
Les
abus pédosexuels sont un grave problème dans notre société, et les victimes
sont plus nombreuses qu’on le croit. C’est aux adultes qu’il incombe de
protéger les enfants contre les abus sexuels. Pour lutter contre ce problème à
la source, il faut savoir en quoi consiste un abus sexuel et pouvoir déceler
les comportements typiques d’un enfant en détresse.
À
partir des informations transmises à Cyberaide.ca, le Centre canadien de
protection de l’enfance a créé Priorité Jeunesse, un programme de prévention
des abus pédosexuels destiné spécifiquement à aider les organismes de services
à l’enfance à renforcer la protection des enfants dont ils ont la charge. Les
chiffres démontrent que la majorité des délinquants sexuels n’ont pas de casier
judiciaire. Le programme Priorité Jeunesse propose aux organismes une approche
méthodique basée sur la gestion des risques qui va beaucoup plus loin que la
vérification du casier judiciaire et du registre de l’enfance maltraitée pour
prévenir les abus pédosexuels.
QU'EST-CE
QU’UN ABUS PÉDOSEXUEL?
L’abus
pédosexuel englobe un vaste éventail de comportements et de situations. On
distingue les abus sexuels sans contact (par exemple, exposer un enfant à des
actes sexuels explicites) et les abus sexuels avec contact (par exemple,
toucher ou caresser la région génitale d’un enfant). L’abus peut être commis
avec ou sans violence et, dans certains cas, mettre aussi en cause des moyens
technologiques, par exemple la production d’images d’abus pédosexuels au moyen
d’un appareil photo ou d’une caméra numérique et leur diffusion sur Internet.
·
Exemples d’abus sexuels avec contact :
·
Attouchements
ou caresses sur la région génitale
·
Attouchements
ou caresses sur les seins
·
Forcer
ou inciter un enfant à toucher ou à caresser la région génitale d’une autre
personne
·
Relations
buccogénitales ou stimulation
·
Pénétration
vaginale ou anale
·
Pénétration
vaginale ou anale avec un doigt ou un objet
·
Exemples d’abus sexuels sans contact :
·
Inciter
ou forcer un enfant à se masturber
·
Voyeurisme
·
Exposer
un enfant à de la pornographie ou à de la pornographie juvénile
·
Inciter
ou forcer un enfant à regarder d’autres personnes se masturber
·
Exposer
un enfant à des adultes se livrant à actes sexuellement explicites
·
Incitation
à des contacts sexuels en ligne ou hors ligne
·
Voyeurisme
·
Leurrer
un enfant sur internet dans l’optique d’un rendez-vous sexuel
·
Poser
à un enfant des questions importunes sur la sexualité ou faire des commentaires
à caractère sexuel à l’endroit d’un enfant
·
Exhiber
rapidement ou montrer ses organes génitaux à un enfant
Comment
renforcer la sécurité de votre enfant
·
Renseignez-vous
sur l’abus pédosexuel et le conditionnement
La
maltraitance sexuelle des enfants a de multiples facettes. Un enfant peut être
abusé par une connaissance, un membre de sa famille ou un étranger. Les enfants
qui se font conditionner par une connaissance ou un membre de la famille ne
sont pas portés à parler. Il est important de comprendre toutes les facettes
des abus sexuels et du conditionnement : comment prévenir les abus et
comment reconnaître les signes d’inconduite afin d’intervenir le plus vite
possible.
·
Mettez
des limites à votre enfant et rappelez-les-lui constamment
Définissez
le rôle de votre enfant dans votre famille et rappelez-le-lui constamment. Si
votre enfant veut écouter vos conversations d’adultes à propos de décisions et
de sujets qui ne concernent que des adultes, rappelez-lui doucement les
limites. Les enfants sont plus vulnérables à l’exploitation et aux abus lorsque
les relations adultes-enfants ne sont pas clairement balisées.
·
Contrôlez
l’exposition de votre enfant à des contenus et à des sujets destinés aux
adultes
Limitez
l’exposition de votre enfant au multimédia (télévision, musique, Internet,
jeux, etc.). Même si votre enfant s’intéresse à ce qui intéresse les adultes,
ne le laissez pas regarder n’importe quoi pour éviter qu’il ne soit trop exposé
à des contenus qu’il n’est pas encore capable d’interpréter correctement.
·
Tenez
votre enfant à l'écart des chicanes d'adultes
Les
chicanes d’adultes sont très déroutantes pour un enfant et peuvent susciter un
stress émotionnel. Tenez votre enfant à l’écart de ces chicanes, et vous établirez
une distinction importante entre son rôle et le vôtre, tout en renforçant son
sentiment de sécurité.
·
Aidez
votre enfant à prendre conscience de ses émotions en respectant ses choix par
rapport aux marques physiques d’affection
Apprendre
le respect à un enfant n'équivaut pas à lui apprendre l'obéissance. Aidez
votre enfant à prendre conscience de ses émotions en respectant ses choix par
rapport aux marques physiques d’affection. Respectez son droit de prendre
ses propres décisions à propos des contacts physiques.
·
Imposez
le respect de l’espace personnel et de l’intimité dans votre foyer
Tous
les membres de la famille devraient pouvoir aller aux toilettes, se laver et se
changer en toute intimité. Chacun devrait aussi disposer d'un espace personnel
dans la maison pour ranger ses affaires (chambre, armoire, tiroirs, tablettes,
etc.).

are wondering if any of the other victims actual received any compansation that
was awarded to them.
Or
should they all just go and jump off a bridge too.
Please
comment to Brian Cills,
if
you are one of these vitims.
Thank
you.

Sydney man charged with online child porn offence
December
12, 2013 - 11:42am By MARY ELLEN MacINTYRE Cape Breton Bureau
SYDNEY
— A Sydney man was arrested Tuesday for making child pornography available on
the Internet.
The
22-year-old was charged after an investigation by the RCMP’s Internet child
exploitation unit, their tech crime unit and Cape Breton Regional Police.
Two
laptops were seized after officers used a search warrant to enter the man’s
home.
The
accused was released and is to appear in Sydney provincial court on June 5.
Police
were unable to make an arrest at another home in Sydney that was searched on
the same evening.
“There
was an unsecured wireless connection at that address and there were no charges
laid,” Const. Colleen Fequet, of the Internet child exploitation unit, said
Thursday.
“The
unsecured connection means it was open to the public to use and that makes it
that much harder to determine who was using it.”
Fequet
compares an unsecured wireless Internet connection to leaving a car in the
driveway with the keys in the ignition.
“If
you leave the key in your car, someone can take it and commit an offence with
your car,” she said. “Any offence can take place if you give someone a way to
go wherever they want online.”
A
password can protect your wireless Internet service just like locking your
vehicle or your home can, Fequet said.
The
Internet child exploitation unit investigates the victimization of children by
those who access, make, possess and/or distribute child pornography. It also
investigates Internet-based luring of children for a sexual purpose.
Canada’s
National tip line for reporting the online sexual exploitation of children can
be found at www.cybertip.ca.
