Hundreds of folks in Quebec, led by Quebec's solid-air spokesperson, Rubik Gazzal, just dropped an open letter calling on Premier Christine Farshet to push a new law that lets women check if their partner has a violent past. The letter hit LaPrest today, arguing this tool would help women gauge real risks and decide smarter about their safety. With nine women killed this year in what looked like domestic violence cases, matching the total for all the 2025 people are fed up and demanding action now.
