I've been assisting a Mens Rights Group now for 3 months and I am shocked at what is considered normal and okay. 3 months = I am not an expert at all but the FACT that women shelters receive $500 million from the government (Tax Payments) per year and Men receive $0 and the only male shelter in Canada is here in Calgary and it is an unfunded shelter, as well, it might close down, is horrifying.
Do you care about this?
There is an Alberta Society for human rights that started a few years ago and the
Pet Society was asked to join but the Male Representatives were omitted and had to DEMAND inclusion. Pets were more important then Men for human rights. This actually happened.
There is a female blogger called "Girl Says What" who is quite entertaining. I met her a few weeks ago at a Male Rights meeting in Edmonton and she is very well informed and uses fact to back up what she says in her blog. It is a serious issue and it is completely ignored.
Please, help stop the shelter from closing. PM me if you are interested. It isn't going to take much.
Here are the Alberta Websites. We can use some help here too.
