welcome to Final Girls Film Club ! the final girl is the last woman standing in horror films–traditionally virtuous, intelligent, sexually unavailable, and sober. while her “immoral” female friends are killed off as punishment, she survives as a reward for her moral purity–granted only through the lens of patriarchy. we’re reclaiming the final girl archetype by showcasing complex female leads who defy expectations. messy, beguiling, and unapologetic, they reject the pressure to be “good girls” and take control of their own stories, challenging what it means to be a woman on screen.

Older adults represent the fastest growing portion of the driving population, with roughly 2.7 million drivers over the age of 65 on Canadians roads today. Driving today is more difficult than ever, because of increased traffic congestion, longer commute distances, new technology and faster speeds. Research suggests that older drivers are among the safest drivers, because they are more likely to wear seat belts and less likely to speed or drink and drive. However, as people age, they’re more likely to suffer serious injuries or risk death in crashes, due to greater fragility. Personal mobility is critical for healthy aging, but ill-fitting vehicles can make it uncomfortable and unsafe to drive. Today’s vehicles have many safety features that offer enhanced restraints and protection, yet many drivers are unaware of those features or how to best use them. CarFit helps you better understand them and develop strategies to achieve the safest fit. At an In-Person CarFit Event, you can expect that: A trained CarFit technician, coordinator or instructor will complete a 12-point checklist with you, the driver. It will take about 20 minutes. You will be in your vehicle during the event. It is free. You will have an opportunity to ask questions. You will learn how to adjust specific features of your vehicle to improve comfort and safety. You will receive a list of additional resources, like more help available in your community about safe driving. This event is for older adult drivers, or family members and caregivers of older adults who may be driving them in their own vehicles. During registration you will have the option to "add-on" a time slot that works for you to attend the event. Information Source: St Michael's Hospital Injury Prevention | eventbrite
