FIGHTING FOR REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS IN 2022 - JULY 13TH - VIRTUAL ROUNDTABLE - NOON-1PM CT
by Shayna Plaut 12 Jul '22

12 Jul '22

On July 13th from noon-1pm CT, the Centre for Human Rights Research at the University of Manitoba is hosting an informative, webinar roundtable discussion "Fighting for Reproductive Rights in 2022." Bringing together a variety of scholars and advocates – and those who identify as both: Karen Sharma, Nahanni Fontaine, Kemlin Nembhard, Dr. Sarah Elvins, Dr. Lindsay Larios, we aim to provide context, information and solidarity as we move forward. PLEASE JOIN US FOR THE WEBINAR AT: http://bit.ly/3P2pp9e [https://us06st3.zoom.us/static/6.1.7243/image/thumb.png]<http://bit.ly/3P2pp9e> Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Fighting for Reproductive Rights in 2022. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.<http://bit.ly/3P2pp9e> Welcome!

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar. bit.ly [cid:b5b84383-06e8-464e-b988-37f3c20c379f] The overturning of Roe V Wade by the Supreme Court of the United States is shocking and will have long term consequences. It also seems to be just the beginning of a movement to once again legitimate control – through law -- over the lives and bodies of women and girls, especially those without the means to travel. Of course, this is not new. According to international law, reproductive rights means the right to choose the number and spacing of your children. Forced and coerced sterilization of Indigenous women, lack of access to abortions (medical and surgical) outside of urban areas and ongoing systemic racism in the health care system and institutions shows that Canada is no utopia for reproductive rights. We are also well aware that other rights, especially those of the LGBTQ+ community, are coming under the crosshairs. Although the decision took place in US courts, we all know that the ripple effects will be felt across borders, including for those of located north of the 49th parallel.

Authorized for service in Nova Scotia, its recruitment efforts later stretched across the country. Approximately 780 people served with the No. 2 Construction Battalion, which operated in Canada, England and France. Those soldiers carried out crucial work in support of operations on the Western Front, including the movement of supplies and the repair of roads and railroads. They did much of this work within the dangerous range of the fighting and at great personal risk.

Environ 780 personnes ont servi dans le 2e Bataillon de construction, qui a opéré au Canada, en Angleterre et en France. Ces soldats ont effectué des travaux essentiels à l’appui des opérations sur le front occidental, notamment le transport de fournitures et la réparation de routes et de chemins de fer.

Revised Minutes - CAHRI meeting June 16 2022
by Viviana Fernandez 22 Jun '22

22 Jun '22

Dear all, Thank you to those who joined the call online or in person yesterday. As a follow up and thanks to the help of Shayna Plaut, I am sharing some notes from the discussion for your review. Participants: 1. Welcome and short introductions: Mona Pare – Interdisciplinary Laboratory of the Rights of the Child – Uottawa, Shannonbrooke Murphy – Atlantic HR Centre (St. Thomas), Mirja Trilsch – UQAM HR Clinic, Sharon Webb – Centre for HR at McGill, Anne Purkey – St Paul College of Social Justice (Univ of Waterloo), Nicole Barrett – International Justice and Human Rights Clinic – UBC, Melinke Yimaz – Centre for Human Rights at McMaster, Virginia Caputo – Landon Pearson Centre for childhood and Children’s Rights, Carleton, Shayna Plaut – Centre for Human Rights Research, University of Manitoba, Viviana Fernandez and John Packer – Human Rights Research and Education Centre, U Ottawa. 1. Shared CAHRI initiatives: · Human Rights Research Network<https://chrr.info/human-rights-research-network/> from the Centre for Human Rights Research at the University of Manitoba. Open to publicizing in-person events taking place in Winnipeg or surrounding areas, online events being organized/sponsored/supported by CAHRI or AHRI members. Can put on calendar, social media, listserve. Email chrrman(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:chrrman@umanitoba.ca> · Students Essay Competition<https://droitcivil.uottawa.ca/interdisciplinary-research-laboratory-rights-…> regarding children’s rights organized by Interdisciplinary Laboratory on the Rights of the Child. Annual<https://droitcivil.uottawa.ca/interdisciplinary-research-laboratory-rights-…> at uOttowa. Annual deadline May 15th. Essay must be submitted to a course and with the approval of the professor can be submitted for consideration for the contest. Winning essay is published in the Canadian Journal for Children’s Rights. 1. Canadian Yearbook of Human Rights. * Two issues published to date (2015 and (2016-2018) since John Packer resuscitated the yearbook in 2014. Solely online now. Next issue (2019-2021) should be published soon. * Offer a Canadian look at human rights - focus is human Rights in Canada and human rights AND Canada. * Audience is both academic and practitioners (law, NGO) and can perhaps be used as a reference for journalists and others if the format changed (more applied and synoptic). Perhaps renamed? “Snapshot of Human Rights in Canada Year XXXX”. The format of the yearbook could be · Year in review (“Developments in human rights in Canada” - world events, Canadian events, legislation, juridical, opportunities) · Thematic focus (this year it is COVID 19 – next time it could be the 40th Anniversary of Human Rights? Or perhaps “What can be learned from Canada’s response to the war in Ukraine?”) · People behind the scenes (Canadians in Human Rights i.e.: there is a housing human rights advocate – what is that?) * Currently the budget is $10-$15K (layout and production takes the bulk, some money for RAs and a small honorarium for a managing editor. The main obstacle is the lack of having a specific point person (managing editor) that can dedicate their time/focus in executing the yearbook (i.e.: tracking down authors/pieces, ensuring drafts become finalized, submit for layout, etc.) * Ideas: turn the Gordon Henderson Post Doc Fellowship in Human Rights (uOttawa) into a TWO year post doc and have the “yearbook” be under their job description (i.e.: they would be the managing editor, have a say in the foci, write a piece that can be published in it and then organize an outreach event for it and by going through the process 2x they can help train the next person). Have the Research Assistants come from different members of CAHRI to ensure that this is a CAHRI publication (mutual ownership/accountability/pride) not solely UOttawa. * Next steps: John to form the editorial board (ideally one representative per CAHRI member), board to choose 2 assistant editors, determine possible foci based on John’s proposals and discussions, uOttawa/HRREC to evaluate the option of using the postdoc as proposed. Please feel free to add if we forgot something important. Enjoy the summer! Viviana and Shayna Viviana A.

The main obstacle is the lack of having a specific point person (managing editor) that can dedicate their time/focus in executing the yearbook (i.e.: tracking down authors/pieces, ensuring drafts become finalized, submit for layout, etc.) * Ideas: turn the Gordon Henderson Post Doc Fellowship in Human Rights (uOttawa) into a TWO year post doc and have the "yearbook" be under their job description (i.e.: they would be the managing editor, have a say in the foci, write a piece that can be published in it and then organize an outreach event for it and by going through the process 2x they can help train the next person). Have the Research Assistants come from different members of CAHRI to ensure that this is a CAHRI publication (mutual ownership/accountability/pride) not solely UOttawa. * Next steps: John to form the editorial board (ideally one representative per CAHRI member), board to choose 2 assistant editors, determine possible foci based on John's proposals and discussions, uOttawa/HRREC to evaluate the option of using the postdoc as proposed. Please feel free to add if we forgot something important. Enjoy the summer! Viviana and Shayna Viviana A.

Dear CAHRI member representatives/supporters, Happy May Day - at last! (I shouldn't jinx things, but it's finally a beautiful spring day at least in Ottawa... despite snowing again LAST WEEK!) I hope you are well and have survived (or are near to completing tasks arising from) the academic year - a second COVID-affected one with many challenges. I am addressing you with regard to a few matters as follows: First, we should have an Annual Meeting to catch-up, exchange views and perhaps decide one or two things. I am taking the liberty of suggesting we meet on Thursday 16 June. We/HRREC would happily arrange and host the meeting. Second, one important subject is to make progress with the Canadian Yearbook of Human Rights (CYHR). For various reasons, it has been a struggle to get it done during the pandemic... but I am pleased to say the third issue is very near to publication (and includes a Special Section on COVID, guest edited by Alex Neve, and another Special Section profiling a handful of Canadian human rights advocates... of whom too little is known or as examples of careers). The immediate need now is to take steps for the next issue (2022-2023). We/HRREC are prepared to offer a modest honorarium for a Managing Editor and we will continue to cover production costs. The previously expressed hope is that CAHRI member entities would each nominate someone for the Editorial Board and that CAHRI would take up the publication as a more fully cooperative endeavour. We are aware that, previously, a few of you did respond positively and even identified a representative for an intended CYHR Editorial Board, but most did not respond. The time seems good to complete this task and move the initiative forward if there is sufficient interest. Third, on 16-17 June we/HRREC are hosting at uOttawa Faculty of Law a youth-oriented gathering around the 40th anniversary of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, There will be parallel sessions on Thursday 16 June and a larger plenary and public day on Friday 17 June. There are some associated initiatives - including political cartoon and photo-journalism competitions with which we're working with various partners and intend an online and physical exhibition. For the parallel meetings on 16 June, we will have one group of Law students and Human Rights students from across Canada, while students of journalism will be meeting in parallel as well as a group of our own "alumni". Friday, 17 June, will include representatives of government, implementing institutions, some who contributed to elaboration of the Charter 40 years ago, and a panel looking ahead at gaps and contemporary pressing issues. As we are hosting this gathering, we would be pleased to include a representative from each CAHRI member for whom we would cover the costs in Ottawa; there is no fee, so it is only transportation costs which we are not covering. If enough CAHRI members would be represented, then we could hold CAHRI's Annual Meeting bi-modally (some in-person and others joining online). Do please let us know the following: 1. Does your centre/institute/programme support holding the CAHRI Annual Meeting on Thursday, 16 June? 2. Does your centre/institute/programme wish to name a representative to the CYHR Editorial Board and, if so, whom? 3. Does your centre/institute/programme wish to send someone to attend our gathering in Ottawa on 16-17 June "Our Charter - Our Rights"? [If so, we will provide all relevant follow-up information.] Thanks for your attention, consideration and response.

CJHR turns 10!
by Shayna Plaut 26 May '22

26 May '22

Canadian Journal of Human Rights celebrates publication of 10th anniversary edition MAY 26, 2022 — The only Canadian peer-reviewed academic journal dealing exclusively with human rights research is still staying true to its original mandate 10 years later. Founded in 2012 by Faculty of Law professor, Dr. Donn Short, the Canadian Journal of Human Rights: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Law and Policy remains a publication of the Law Faculty Council at the University of Manitoba. Each year, about 20 law students cut their teeth on academic research working for the CJHR as Assistant Editors, Editors, and as Senior Editor, all under the guidance of Dr. Short who remains Editor-in-Chief. Produced with funding from the Legal Research Institute, the Law Foundation of Manitoba, and with assistance provided by Carmen Roberge, Faculty of Education and Professional Studies, Université de Saint-Boniface, the CJHR is an internationally recognized journal that attracts scholarship from respected human rights scholars around the world. Publications have included immigration and refugee law, freedom of expression, equality, sexuality and gender rights, international law, criminal law and numerous other issues related to domestic and international human rights. In the 10th Anniversary edition’s forward, Dr. Richard Jochelson, Dean of the Faculty of Law, recognizes the CJHR’s singularity and the critical role it plays in fostering the exploration of human rights issues, especially with so much more work to be done. “Disability injustice maintains, as Canada continues to lag even the United States in legislative responses to inaccessibility,” he writes. “Members of the LGBTQ2S*+ communities continue to be othered and excluded from institutions and opportunities across the globe. Hate crimes and anti-Semitic speech appear to be on the rise over the last several years in Canada and globally. Trumpism, the rise of strong men and movements to the fascistic right have increased around the world.” “It has never been more important to explore these vital issues, and this journal continues to be an international thought leading vehicle in the complicating of human rights discussions.” – Dr. Richard Jochelson, Dean of Law, Forward, (2021) 10:1 Can J Hum Rts “The CJHR is one of the few groups in the law school who do what we do twelve months during the year,” said Dr. Short. “There is no season to what we do – it’s an ongoing cycle. We work through the entire school year and we don’t stop during the summer. As those cycles have turned, ten times now, I have been cognizant of two overriding principles or goals that define our mission of public education. First, our task is to contribute to the growing awareness of human rights, generally, and, second, our charge to present scholarship that results in the actual respecting of human rights.” Senior Editor Jack Powles graduates from the Juris Doctor program this spring after having been involved with the CJHR in multiple capacities since the end of his first year of law school. He describes his time spent with the journal as one of the highlights of his law school experience. “It offers a unique experience during law school in being a part of an ongoing project throughout the entire academic year,” he said. “Each volume of the journal is a culmination of the work other student editors have done in preceding years, and it is both a rewarding and memorable experience to have each year culminate in publishing a volume of the CJHR with that year’s editorial team. I know the CJHR will continue to be a success for all of those involved, and pass all my thanks to Editor-in-Chief Dr. Donn Short for this invaluable mentorship throughout these past 2 years.” Editor Rhiannon Swan finishes her second year of law this spring and has learned much from her experience working on the journal. “I have really enjoyed being able to work with peers who share an interest in the promotion and discussion of human rights,” she said. “The CJHR has allowed me insight into topics that I might not have otherwise considered, and more importantly how the law might be used to protect the rights of vulnerable communities. I think this is something that is very important for professionals in the legal field to remember.” Articles contained in the 10th Anniversary edition include “The Final Refugee Paradigm: A Historical Warning” by J. Mauricio Gaona, “Managing Campus Expression and Equality Rights: Contemporary Considerations for Canadian Universities” by Arig al Shaibah and Sophie Poinar, and “Towards Developing a Non-ableist and Non-cisnormative Taxonomy of Bodily Integrity Identity and Expression in Canadian Human Rights Law” by Daniel W. Dylan. The full volume is available for download on the CJHR website<https://cjhr.ca/vol-10-no-1-2021/>, along with past volumes. This year’s editorial board consists of the following individuals: Editor-in-Chief Donn Short Senior Editor Jack Powles Editors Brandon Gray Brayden Gray Rhiannon Swan Prachi Sanghavi Lewis Waring Next year, students Rhiannon Swan and Brayden Grey will take on the roles of co-senior editors working with Dr. Short to continue the CJHR’s mission of producing outstanding human rights scholarship.

Dear CAHRI member representatives/supporters, Happy May Day - at last! (I shouldn't jinx things, but it's finally a beautiful spring day at least in Ottawa... despite snowing again LAST WEEK!) I hope you are well and have survived (or are near to completing tasks arising from) the academic year - a second COVID-affected one with many challenges. I am addressing you with regard to a few matters as follows: First, we should have an Annual Meeting to catch-up, exchange views and perhaps decide one or two things. I am taking the liberty of suggesting we meet on Thursday 16 June. We/HRREC would happily arrange and host the meeting. Second, one important subject is to make progress with the Canadian Yearbook of Human Rights (CYHR). For various reasons, it has been a struggle to get it done during the pandemic... but I am pleased to say the third issue is very near to publication (and includes a Special Section on COVID, guest edited by Alex Neve, and another Special Section profiling a handful of Canadian human rights advocates... of whom too little is known or as examples of careers). The immediate need now is to take steps for the next issue (2022-2023). We/HRREC are prepared to offer a modest honorarium for a Managing Editor and we will continue to cover production costs. The previously expressed hope is that CAHRI member entities would each nominate someone for the Editorial Board and that CAHRI would take up the publication as a more fully cooperative endeavour. We are aware that, previously, a few of you did respond positively and even identified a representative for an intended CYHR Editorial Board, but most did not respond. The time seems good to complete this task and move the initiative forward if there is sufficient interest. Third, on 16-17 June we/HRREC are hosting at uOttawa Faculty of Law a youth-oriented gathering around the 40th anniversary of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, There will be parallel sessions on Thursday 16 June and a larger plenary and public day on Friday 17 June. There are some associated initiatives - including political cartoon and photo-journalism competitions with which we're working with various partners and intend an online and physical exhibition. For the parallel meetings on 16 June, we will have one group of Law students and Human Rights students from across Canada, while students of journalism will be meeting in parallel as well as a group of our own "alumni". Friday, 17 June, will include representatives of government, implementing institutions, some who contributed to elaboration of the Charter 40 years ago, and a panel looking ahead at gaps and contemporary pressing issues. As we are hosting this gathering, we would be pleased to include a representative from each CAHRI member for whom we would cover the costs in Ottawa; there is no fee, so it is only transportation costs which we are not covering. If enough CAHRI members would be represented, then we could hold CAHRI's Annual Meeting bi-modally (some in-person and others joining online). Do please let us know the following: 1. Does your centre/institute/programme support holding the CAHRI Annual Meeting on Thursday, 16 June? 2. Does your centre/institute/programme wish to name a representative to the CYHR Editorial Board and, if so, whom? 3. Does your centre/institute/programme wish to send someone to attend our gathering in Ottawa on 16-17 June "Our Charter - Our Rights"? [If so, we will provide all relevant follow-up information.] Thanks for your attention, consideration and response.

by Shayna Plaut 04 May '22

perhaps of interest? I am on the board of the University of Arizona's Masters of Human Rights Practice and received this email from them. Their classes are always of high quality. Dear Shayna. We have put together a pretty unique course about human rights in Ukraine that will run from mid-May until the end of June. This is a course open to students for credit, as well as for community members (for a very low price). It will consist of a number of guest lecturers from the regions and on the ground, and address important and timely issues relevant to us all in all fields and walks of life. Please if you can spread the word about this course and please send the document attached to this email to your list servs and mailing lists - that would be a huge help! Many thanks, as always, Sincerely, Leonard

CAHRI annual meeting, CYHR and "Our Charter - Our Rights" gathering 16-17 June uOttawa - three questions
by Viviana Fernandez 02 May '22

02 May '22

Dear colleagues, Apologies if you already received the note below from John Packer over the weekend. Thank in advance for sending your responses to jpacker(a)uottawa.ca<mailto:jpacker@uottawa.ca> at your earliest convenience. Very best wishes, Viviana Viviana A. Fernandez Directrice adjointe / Assistant Director Centre de recherche et d’enseignement sur les droits de la personne / Human Rights Research and Education Centre Université d’Ottawa / University of Ottawa Twitter: @vafi1217 Fêtons le 40e anniversaire du CREDP<https://cdp-hrc.uottawa.ca/en/CREDP40HRREC> / Celebrate the 40th anniversary of HRREC<https://cdp-hrc.uottawa.ca/fr/CREDP40HRREC> Vous pouvez aussi communiquer avec moi via Teams (uOttawa). | You can also contact me via Teams (uOttawa). From: Frederick John Packer <John.Packer(a)uottawa.ca<mailto:John.Packer@uottawa.ca>> Sent: Sunday, May 1, 2022 1:05 PM Subject: CAHRI annual meeting, CYHR and "Our Charter - Our Rights" gathering 16-17 June uOttawa - three questions Importance: High Dear CAHRI member representatives/supporters, Happy May Day – at last! (I shouldn’t jinx things, but it’s finally a beautiful spring day at least in Ottawa… despite snowing again LAST WEEK!) I hope you are well and have survived (or are near to completing tasks arising from) the academic year – a second COVID-affected one with many challenges. I am addressing you with regard to a few matters as follows: First, we should have an Annual Meeting to catch-up, exchange views and perhaps decide one or two things. I am taking the liberty of suggesting we meet on Thursday 16 June. We/HRREC would happily arrange and host the meeting. Second, one important subject is to make progress with the Canadian Yearbook of Human Rights (CYHR). For various reasons, it has been a struggle to get it done during the pandemic… but I am pleased to say the third issue is very near to publication (and includes a Special Section on COVID, guest edited by Alex Neve, and another Special Section profiling a handful of Canadian human rights advocates… of whom too little is known or as examples of careers). The immediate need now is to take steps for the next issue (2022-2023). We/HRREC are prepared to offer a modest honorarium for a Managing Editor and we will continue to cover production costs. The previously expressed hope is that CAHRI member entities would each nominate someone for the Editorial Board and that CAHRI would take up the publication as a more fully cooperative endeavour. We are aware that, previously, a few of you did respond positively and even identified a representative for an intended CYHR Editorial Board, but most did not respond. The time seems good to complete this task and move the initiative forward if there is sufficient interest. Third, on 16-17 June we/HRREC are hosting at uOttawa Faculty of Law a youth-oriented gathering around the 40th anniversary of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, There will be parallel sessions on Thursday 16 June and a larger plenary and public day on Friday 17 June. There are some associated initiatives – including political cartoon and photo-journalism competitions with which we’re working with various partners and intend an online and physical exhibition. For the parallel meetings on 16 June, we will have one group of Law students and Human Rights students from across Canada, while students of journalism will be meeting in parallel as well as a group of our own “alumni”. Friday, 17 June, will include representatives of government, implementing institutions, some who contributed to elaboration of the Charter 40 years ago, and a panel looking ahead at gaps and contemporary pressing issues. As we are hosting this gathering, we would be pleased to include a representative from each CAHRI member for whom we would cover the costs in Ottawa; there is no fee, so it is only transportation costs which we are not covering. If enough CAHRI members would be represented, then we could hold CAHRI’s Annual Meeting bi-modally (some in-person and others joining online). Do please let us know the following: 1. Does your centre/institute/programme support holding the CAHRI Annual Meeting on Thursday, 16 June? 2. Does your centre/institute/programme wish to name a representative to the CYHR Editorial Board and, if so, whom? 3. Does your centre/institute/programme wish to send someone to attend our gathering in Ottawa on 16-17 June “Our Charter – Our Rights”? [If so, we will provide all relevant follow-up information.] Thanks for your attention, consideration and response.
