I want to echo those sentiments.
Yes, it's heartening. However, at what cost is it? Today, if there is another student who goes through the violence I had to go through, are they still going to be just given another walkie-talkie and be expected to stay safe? The reason I'm speaking out and becoming a bigger target—perhaps I will never be able to go back home if I want to, for speaking out—is in the hope that someone else will not have to go through this. No other Canadian should ever have to go through that.
