Everybody should have equal opportunities... Unfortunately that isn't the case. I'm happy that initiatives like @Spotify’s EQUAL exist to help towards fostering equity for women in music. I'm honoured to be the EQUAL Global Ambassador for September. open.spotify.com/playlist/37…

This little chair represents the children who did not come home from Indian Residential School. This chair will be at each national gathering on unmarked graves and missing children, held by Special Interlocutor Kim Murray, over the next two years. We work to bring them home.
