It’s a tragic case — and a call for accountability.

On a light blue background with pink circles, the ODLAN logo is at the top. Underneath in blue rounded squares, black text reads, “We are fundraising to secure a portion of our operational funding for 2026-2027! We’ve hit about 10% of our $7000 goal”. Underneath there is a blue and pink progress bar that is 10.5% filled in. Underneath, it says, “Will you help us hit our goal?”.
Black text reads, “Option 1: Consider purchasing an item from our auction! The auction will go live on Feb 20th at 9am. Don’t see anything for you? Swipe to learn about other ways you can support us!”. There is a screenshot of 6 items from the virtual silent auction.
Black text reads, “Option 2: Purchase ODLAN merch! We have stickers, t-shirts, and USB-keys! Don’t need any merch? Swipe to learn how to make a direct donation!” There is a screenshot from the website where you can order merch.
Black text reads, “Option 3: Make a direct donation. Find the links for donating, merch, and the auction at lnk.bio/ODLANCanada!”. There is a screen of the website where you can make a direct donation.

situational awareness = the most underrated prep tool
know your exits
keep one ear open
listen to your gut
being alert ≠ being afraid. it means you’re present.

Two individuals, both presenting as women or nonbinary, are outdoors at a shooting range. One is instructing the other on the safe handling of a black AR-style rifle. The firearm has a custom stock that reads “THIS MACHINE MAKES FOLK MUSIC.” The person receiving instruction wears a green hat with a patch that says “DEFEND EQUALITY” alongside a rifle silhouette, and reflective aviator sunglasses. Both are focused and engaged in the training. The atmosphere is calm, respectful, and supportive, with safety gear such as ear protection and yellow shooting glasses in use.
Did you know the number of LGBTQIA+ folks seeking firearm training has increased dramatically in the past 5 years — not out of fear, but preparedness?
Empowerment isn’t partisan. You deserve knowledge, choice, and safety.
