Let's Talk About Murder - DV Among the Provinces

Let's Talk About Murder - DV Among the Provinces

Today we’re taking a cross-Canada road trip, but not the fun kind with snacks and a playlist. We’re looking at how each province approaches domestic violence: the risk assessments they use, the red flags they miss, and the very real lives caught in the gaps.


📌 1. ShelterSafe.ca (Canada-wide)

Website: https://www.sheltersafe.ca

An interactive map of women’s shelters across every province and territory.

Listeners can click their region and immediately find 24/7 shelters, phone lines, and crisis intake options.

This is one of the best resources for people needing physical safety right now.


📌 2. 1-800-VICTIM-LINK (1-800-842-8465)

Free, confidential support across Canada.

Helps with:

  • Domestic violence
  • Sexual assault
  • Legal information
  • Safety planning
  • Connecting to local services

Excellent for people who don’t know where to start.


📌 3. 211 Canada (Call or Text 2-1-1)

Website: https://211.ca

Available nationwide.

Provides:

  • Emergency housing
  • Counselling
  • Crisis supports
  • Safety planning
  • Help accessing social services

211 is great because you can say anything — “I need help,” “I’m scared,” “I don’t know what to do” — and they direct you.
