[stop bullying]

Canada ranked a dismal 26th (reports of bullying) and 27th (reports of
victimization) out of 35 countries (Craig & Harel, 2004).

Bullying is often invisible and occurs behind closed doors without
witnesses and even when bullying is witnessed, team members usually
side with the bully (Becker 2005).

17% of targets have to transfer to other jobs and only 13% of bullies
are ever punished or terminated (Becker 2005).

56 per cent of these hate-motivated crimes against the LBGT community
are in fact the most violent (Cochrane 2011).

59% of LGBTQ high school students reported they were verbally
harassed, compared to 7% of non-LGBTQ students (2009 Canadian Climate
Survey on Homophobia).

80 per cent of the young people who are being attacked because of
their perceived sexual orientation are actually straight (Cochrane
2011).

84% of bullied employees are female and 81% of bullies are in
supervisory roles (Brunner 2003).

85% of LGBTQ students reported being verbally harassed at school in
the past year because of their sexual orientation (2009 Canadian
Climate Survey on Homophobia).
Homophobic behaviour is passed down through generations at the kitchen
table and has deep roots. Bullies end up in the work force, they end
up in academia, they end up in unions. These practices don’t stop when
you leave school, they continue throughout adult life. They become
parents and that perpetuates the cycle (Cochrane 2011).
