Need Help?
As our isolation time continues, we realise that there are vulnerable people within our community that may need help.
We are still here to take anonymous tips about domestic abuse and issues where a person’s safety is in jeopardy.
We have reached out to our community partners and they provided us a list of all the support services that are currently functioning in the Greater Victoria area. The list is split into categories of care and explains the way an organisation is conducting their work.

Dear Suspect
There are times in our lives when we make good choices as well as bad choices, all while never truly knowing the outcome of said choice.
So, on the day that these pictures of you were taken, you made the ‘bad choice’ to walk into the Save On Foods at Tillicum Centre and commit the crime of theft. Do you remember what it is you stole? Well let’s refresh your memory……..you stole a Children’s Charity Donation Box.
Now we are calling upon our amazing followers to make a ‘good choice’ and tell us who you.
It won’t be long before we have your name and we pass it along to the Police and the outcome for your ‘bad choice’, will include a pair of handcuffs.
See you soon
