Speaking at the Violence Link Conference 2017

Ottawa, December 6 2017

Senator Hartling spoke at the Violence Link 2017 Conference hosted by the Canadian Federation of Humane Societies. #LINK2017 was an innovative, ground-breaking conference that examined the link between violence against human beings and animals, looking at the vulnerabilities in both populations and how they intersect. It brought together 10 key Canadian sectors that work to prevent and address violence against people or animals for cross-sector training on how to stop the cycles of violence. This was the first national conference of this kind in Canada, and it has kick-started much-needed action on violence.
