[Meet at the mosaic behind the OTH.] An evening of presentations by folks involved in the recent Renfrew County Coroner’s inquest into the 2015 murders of 3 women by the same man. Lawyer Pam Cross's presentation will be followed by a panel moderated by Interval House director Erin Lee, with Superintendent Derrick Needham OPP, Julie Lalonde of Renfrew County Sexual Assault, and others involved in this first-ever rural-focused inquest. The Coroner’s Jury and Inquest resulted in 86 recommendations for a broad range of actions. Tickets: $10 at TicketsPlease.ca. Free tickets will be made available upon request: email whatnowlanarkcounty@gmail.com. This event is in support of the 16 Days of Activism for No Violence against Women & Children. The idea is to learn from the inquest, look at the services in Lanark County, see what needs to be done to enhance the safety of women and children, and — most importantly — to stop male violence. Presented by LCIH, Stir It Up Collective, and the Lanark County Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Program.
6:30pm Opening Ceremony, mosaic behind OTH. 7pm Panel Discussion: What can we do to prevent similar tragedies? Tix: TicketsPlease.ca.
