This post has nothing to do with fashion but it's very important to me and I wanted to share this with you. Back in October I acted in a commercial for the Edmonton Police's "Speak Out" campaign, urging victims of domestic violence to make themselves heard. The campaign launched yesterday, with two 15-second commercials (see mine, above and also this spot) as well as posters on billboards and at LRT stations across Edmonton. Filming was very intense and sad but I am so happy to be a part of something that will hopefully have an impact on victims, and will urge them to get help.

What a great cause Marie! Domestic violence is a tough issue that deserves exposure like this....good work!
I think this is such an important topic. It is great to see awareness being brought to the public.
The only suggestion I have would be for people to stop using the term "victim" and exchange it with the word "survivor". it is much more empowering.
Great, powerful work though!
wow that is such a powerful 15 seconds add! Good job for the acting and for the participation!
it is only 15 seconds, but it's definitely very powerful! this is something that will stay with me for a long time. <3
