These are just suggestions for related elements you can add to your intention, or ideas to help you choose an intenton for this Full Moon.) All who visit us in-store to add their candles to the altar are welcome to stay in Pink's Parlor and meditate if desired. We'll have chairs and meditation cushions available.

Pathways to Justice: Strengthening Legal Advocacy for Police Accountability | CKUA Radio Network

May 14, 2025 (UTC-6)ENDED
Edmonton
Conferences
This event brings together legal professionals, community advocates, and those impacted by police violence to explore legal avenues for accountability. Through roundtable discussions, workshops, and dialogue, participants will examine systemic barriers, legal strategies, and policy reforms that can drive change. The day will foster collaboration, amplify survivor voices, and identify actionable steps to strengthen legal advocacy in policing oversight. Using Administrative Mechanisms - Possibilities and Challenges Workshop This session explores the effectiveness and limitations of shelter standards in ensuring accountability and dignity for low-income individuals within the shelters. As increasing numbers of people are pushed into houselessness and encampments, they are left more vulnerable to criminalization and harmful interactions with police. This workshop will examine the use of complaints processes, human rights mechanisms and collective advocacy strategies to address harms experienced in shelters. The discussion will offer insights into systemic barriers, oversight challenges and opportunities for reform to better protect the rights and well-being of shelter residents. Following the presentation, participants will engage in a facilitated dialogue and workshop to unpack the findings together, explore the practical implications and co-create ideas for advocacy and action. Explore Collective Legal Avenues for Police Accountability Legal professionals and community advocates will examine the successes and challenges of collective legal action in addressing police misconduct. Panelists will discuss Indigenous legal responses, class action lawsuits, and systemic litigation, identifying gaps in current approaches and exploring how legal strategies can be strengthened to drive meaningful accountability. Presenters: Ron MacDonald (in person) Ron MacDonald is a recently retired lawyer with over 39 years of experience in Canada’s criminal justice system. He served as both a Crown prosecutor and defence counsel in Nova Scotia before becoming the founding Director of the province’s Serious Incident Response Team (SiRT).

With 13 years in police oversight leadership—Canada’s longest tenure—Ron brings unmatched insight into systemic accountability, policy reform, and the complexities of independent investigations. He is a past president of both the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society and the Federation of Law Societies of Canada and has received multiple national awards for his legal and community service. Jatin Shory (in person) Jatin Shory is a partner at Shory Law LLP and a leader in immigration and refugee law. Based in Calgary, his advocacy spans local and international contexts, including government advisory roles on policy and legal strategy. Jatin brings a community-centered perspective on how legal systems interact with marginalized populations—particularly racialized newcomers—and how advocacy can be mobilized through and beyond the courts. Jatin is also an Adjunct Instructor at Queen’s University, where he teaches Family Class Immigration, and serves on the board of the Calgary Bridge Foundation for Youth. Jatin continues to champion equitable access to justice and effective police management, ensuring that marginalized communities receive the representation and support they deserve.

Her litigation and administrative law work centers the rights of criminalized individuals, and she actively contributes to systemic change through her roles with the Alberta Prison Justice Society and the Canadian Prison Law Association.
