🚨 Public transit, ridesharing, and walking should be safe for everyone—yet many still face harassment or unsafe conditions.

We need policy changes that address:
📌 More security measures on public transit
📌 Stricter screening for rideshare drivers
📌 Better-lit and well-monitored transit stops

What changes would YOU like to see? Comment below! ⬇️

Let’s use our collective voice to push for safer spaces.

Did you know that Toronto has safety programs to make transit safer for everyone? 🚆✨

The Toronto Transit Commission (@takethettc) offers:
✔ Request Stop Program – Women & vulnerable riders can ask the driver to stop closer to their destination at night.
✔ Designated Waiting Areas – Well-lit areas with security cameras.
✔ SafeTTC App – Report harassment or safety concerns in real-time.

Meanwhile, @ttcriders is actively advocating for better, safer, and more accessible public transit across the city! 🏙️🚎

Their work ensures that transit users have a voice in shaping safer policies.

🌙 Walking alone at night can feel unsettling—

🌙 Walking alone at night can feel unsettling—especially for those who’ve experienced or fear gender-based harm.

While safety isn’t always within our control, there are steps we can take to help prioritize it when we’re able.

These tips, adapted from @humberpoly, are here to support you:

🔹 Walk with purpose and choose well-lit routes when possible.
🔹 Keep valuables out of sight to avoid drawing attention.
🔹 If you’re carrying a bag, wear the strap across your chest for added security.
🔹 Travel with others when you can—community helps.
🔹 Trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, it’s okay to turn around or seek a safe space.
🔹 If you feel unsafe, make noise or draw attention to yourself to alert others nearby.
