The Colchester-Cumberland MP is throwing her weight behind feminists, senators and scholars calling for a feminist analysis into the Nova Scotia shooting.

Johanna May Black, bystander program co-ordinator for the Antigonish Women’s Resource Centre, said such national calls are “extremely encouraging,” and indicative of broad recognition in Canada that domestic violence is a broad social problem.Nova Scotia senators call for public inquiry into mass shootingsThe psychology of an ‘injustice collector’

“There are women and children put in harm’s way who are suffering every day, so we think a much broader inquiry needs to be held, taking a feminist lens, taking a look at where does this type of violence come from and what can we do to prevent it.” Furey told reporters he hoped to have news this week on the probe, but no such announcement has been made. He has, however, stated that the probe must be thorough, with the power to compel provincial and federal agencies, and make binding recommendations.
