and choose the harder, better path.

This is your credit.

Police said that the women they interviewed who worked at the property gave consistent accounts of exploitation and "physical violence and abuse" at the hands of three young men, including the suspect.

They further claimed they were pressured to produce increasingly explicit content and were pressured to take Adderall to keep them active.

During their raid of the mansion, police seized more than 300 cell phones, more than 50 laptops, financial documents, cashier's checks, business records, a whiteboard laying out the group's "content plan" and more than 30 s*x toys. Two luxury cars were also seized and impounded. Also, the parties held reportedly had many guests who were under the age of 18.

We stand in full solidarity with the student protestors in Camrose demanding real accountability. It is time to stop making excuses for misogyny, confront the digital forces shaping young minds, and dismantle the demand for exploitation.

At CEASE, we know that po*******hy is one of many online influences young people encounter. The 24/7 accessibility of online po*******hy serves as a massive breeding ground for hostile s*xism. When young boys are flooded with commercial content that relies on the degradation and objectification of girls and women, their empathy is eroded. They learn to view girls as objects of entitlement rather than as equals.

June is National Indigenous History Month in Canada. A time for reflection, learning, and recognizing the histories that continue to shape our communities.

At CEASE, this month is also a reminder of the importance of listening, building understanding, and supporting pathways to safety, dignity, and healing for all.

CEASE was grateful to collaborate with NorQuest College for Sexual Violence Prevention Month and National Indigenous History Month. Together with community partners, we hosted a table to raise awareness about human trafficking. Participants were also engaged through a creative tote bag painting activity—creating space for meaningful conversations, connection, and learning. 💛

CEASE was honoured to join the event for Okîsikow (Angel) Way Day 💜, coming together in remembrance of women and gender‑diverse people, their families, and all those impacted by violence. Thank you to everyone who attended and shared in this sacred space of reflection, respect, and solidarity—your presence helped create a powerful moment of connection and collective remembrance.
