SUMMARY:Future Howl Book Launch with Sue Goyette in conversation with Stephanie Domet and Seán Kennedy
DESCRIPTION:Future Howl Book Launch with Sue Goyette in conversation with Stephanie Domet and Seán Kennedy. \nThe Bus Stop Theatre\, 2203 Gottingen Street\, Halifax. \nOctober 9\, 7-9pm (doors open at 6:30pm. Free admission\, limited seating). \n  \n“Propelled by Goyette’s declarative voice\, sense of humour\, and side-slipping imagery\, each page of the poem is “a microdose of arts poetica” infused with intertextual and transformative guidance from the painter Bob Ross\, the live-cam company of a pair of endangered red wolves\, and a private-to-public reckoning that is grounded in this singular time.” -Gaspereau Press.

SUMMARY:Lawless Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Martha Paynter in conversation with Dr. Lianne Yoshida and Nasha Nijhawan for the launch of Lawless: Abortion Under Complete Decriminalization  \nDr. Martha Paynter has worked to advance abortion access in Canada for over twenty years. A writer\, nurse and public scholar\, she is recognized internationally for her expertise at the nexus of reproductive justice and prisoner health. She is an associate professor at the University of New Brunswick Faculty of Nursing\, where her research addresses the health rights of people experiencing incarceration\, as well as sexual and reproductive health care in Canada and around the world. She is the author of Abortion to Abolition: Reproductive Health and Justice in Canada (Fernwood\, 2017) and has published extensively in national magazines (Chatelaine\, Briarpatch) and scientific journals. Paynter is a keen advocate for increasing the influence of women and gender-diverse people in news media and participates regularly in interviews with national and international print\, radio and TV press (CBC/Radio-Canada\, Global\, CTV). She values and fosters collaborations with community organizations and lived-experience experts in reproductive health and prison justice. Paynter is a recipient of the 150th anniversary medal from the Senate of Canada for her volunteer service to the country (2017) and the King Charles III Coronation Medal for service to the nursing profession (2025). \nAbout Lawless \nCanada is the only country with complete decriminalization of abortion: no gestational duration limitations\, no parental consent obligations\, and no waiting periods. In recent years\, other countries (New Zealand\, Colombia\, Uruguay\, Mexico) have made strides toward this\, while the United States has notoriously lost ground. Amidst the tumult\, nurse and scholar Martha Paynter uses historical context and contemporary issues to explain why experts advocate against laws governing abortion. \nDespite decriminalization\, Canadian federal and provincial legislation and regulations about health funding\, delivery\, and human rights all shape how abortion care is delivered. Barriers persist in uneven access\, unclear information\, and belief-based denial of care. In accessible plain language from the expansive perspective of a clinician\, researcher and activist\, Paynter describes abortion policy\, practice and experience and discusses how to resolve challenges that continue more than three decades after Canada became the world’s most legally progressive jurisdiction for abortion.

SUMMARY:Day of Pink ECHO Tour
DESCRIPTION:Echoes of Resistance. Echoes of Recognition. Echoes of Change.\nThis year\, the Day of Pink ECHO Tour travels across Canada\, bringing together powerful storytellers\, poets\, activists\, and community leaders to share the 2SLGBTQIA+ stories that once faced censorship—and still fight for space today. \nFrom courtrooms to bookstores\, family tables to federal law\, queer and trans voices have always resisted silence. This tour honours that resistance\, marking 25 years since two defining moments in Canadian queer history: \n\n\nThe Supreme Court case Little Sisters Bookstore v. Canada \n\n\nThe passing of the Modernization of Benefits and Obligations Act \n\n\nBut this tour is not just about the past—it’s about the stories still echoing now. Stories that shape who we are and where we go next. \n🎙️ What to Expect\nThe ECHO Tour is an evening of poetry\, conversation\, reflection\, and truth-telling.\nOur speakers will share stories from history and lived experience—stories that would have been censored 25 years ago\, and in many places\, still are. \nThis is not just a show. It’s a call to listen. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets are free and open to all. Join us for an unforgettable night of stories\, solidarity\, and shared purpose.
