Carrie Low (Nova Scotia) and Morrell Andrews (British Columbia) were both subjected to unwanted publication bans after reporting sexual assault. After removing their bans, they helped form My Voice, My Choice, an advocacy group of victim-complainants that lobbied the federal government to amend section 486.4 of the Criminal Code of Canada. This event takes you through their journey to national change, provides you with a more comprehensive understanding of the law on publication bans, and leaves you feeling equipped to advocate for legislative change and support progress to improve the way that publication bans are used in the criminal legal system.
