• "We are thrilled to build on the success of our inaugural campaign and continue our partnership with Indspire to provide Canadians with the opportunity to support Indigenous students.

• Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 3, 2023) - Tudor Gold Corp. (TSXV: TUD) (FSE: H56) (the "Company" or "Tudor Gold") is pleased to announce the appointment of Daniel Le Dressay as a director of the Company.
• Le Dressay is a lawyer with 38 years of experience as a Barrister conducting trials and appeals, and he has a law practice in Vancouver, British Columbia.
• He is a graduate of the University of Regina, Bachelor of Arts Honours (with High Honours), and Master of Arts (1981).
• The Company also announces the resignation of Natalie Senger as a director of the Company to focus on her current role as VP of Resource Development of Tudor Gold.

• It’s also my attempt to be clear that institutions that make their money and reputation from the work of gender scholars are responsible for our safety.
• We need the burden to be shared — by our institutions, by our colleagues and by you, dear reader.
• Collectively, as a society, we failed University of Waterloo philosophy professor Katy Fulfer and two of her students on June 28.
• It is part of a campaign of escalating incidents on university and college campuses, outside public schools, inside and outside school board meetings.

Broad responses needed

• Our society’s and universities’ response to this needs to be similarly broad.
• Fulfer and her students need to be at the centre of that care.
• Also needing care are others across Canada who do similar work, who teach similar material, who study in similar classes.

Creating safe work, learning environments

• Next, recognizing that this is not an isolated single incident, we need to think about both how we create safe work and learning environments and how we de-escalate movements of misogyny, homophobia and transphobia.
• Creating safety takes many forms.
• Most powerfully, if you are an educator and you are not already teaching intersectional feminist, 2SLGBTQIA+ content in your courses, start doing so now.

Address misogyny, homophobia, transphobia

• Within or beyond universities, when we encounter misogyny, homophobia and transphobia we need to address it, and address it with everyone who was impacted.
• We need our institutions to be public in their support.
• Yes, this means public letters, policy statements, flying rainbow flags and painting trans Pride crosswalks.

More public conversations

• We need individual conversations with the people around us, and public conversations in our media, places of worship, businesses and organizations.
• We need to make celebration of gender diversity, honouring of women and 2SLGBTQIA+ people the culture.

OK if it feels uncomfortable

• It’s OK if this work is new to you.
• It’s OK if it feels uncomfortable at first.
• As a colleague of mine wrote after reading about the attack, it is OK to be “both afraid and bravely continuing to speak up.” Universities need to ensure everyone affected is engaged in responses.

• Dynamic Funds is addressing this gap with two new initiatives – the appointment of industry veteran Daryl Diamond as Chief Retirement Income Strategist and the build out of a dedicated Retirement Income Centre.
• "We are thrilled to welcome highly respected industry veteran Daryl Diamond as Chief Retirement Income Strategist of Dynamic Funds, to share his decades of knowledge and insights with our clients."
