Men less likely to Report Domestic Violence, due in part to lack of Agencies for Men

I read this article, too, on cbc.ca/news. Given that Canadian media are the absolute worst when it comes to toeing the feminist line, I was amazed that this was even presented. Still, I am not convinced that men are even half as likely to report.
I have not been able to find the study. Strangely (or perhaps not), StatsCan does not seem to make this one available. Granted, I have not given it full effort, yet. If I find it, I will go over it, and give a report. If anyone else finds it...please do so.

I have also searched for a study to support the 50% as likely as women figure and cannot find one. StatsCan does not seem to measure figures regarding male reports of domestic abuse, and I can't even find an independant study that corroberates that figure.

I am also inclined to agree with your feeling that the number is significantly lower then 50% (that sounds astonishingly high to me).

The fun part would be that if men became more likely to report domestic violence then the number of reports of violence involving weapons would likely sky rocket as most studies agree that women seem make up for their smaller size by incorporating weapons into their attacks on victums.

"Given that Canadian media are the absolute worst when it comes to toeing the feminist line, I was amazed that this was even presented."

Not completely true -- certainly not anymore. In fact, the Canadian media may be taking the lead on becoming less feminist than other "Western" nations. Note the wonderfully truthful and pointedly anti-feminist/pro-male articles being printed by the National Post over the last few months.

I detect a bit of a sea-shift happening in Canada. There's a definite sense that masculinity is regaining favour. Not obvious or over-whealming yet (and, gawd, there's a LONG way to go), but it's happening -- a whiff of a breath of fresh air.

There seems to be a bit less tolerance for wacky, unworkable socialist/feminist policies or politicians, and a bit more willingness to expose the abject harm to boys, men, and society in general caused by feminists.

I think the US is starting to experience some of this as well. It's a good thing.

(Actually, what's REALLY unbelievable is that the article would be carried on the staunchly politically correct CBC, that bastion of loony-left, feminist "thought." The CBC rivals the BBC or NPR for expressing only radical-feminist-approved opinions. Then again, the CBC IS government-funded, and Canada has a new centre-right Conservative government, with a strong, no-bullshit Prime Minister...)

Ragtime

Encouraging words, Ragtime. I am still skeptical, but I will check out the national post. The cbc has gotten way out of control. They seem to have given Georgie Binks and Heather Mallick (both are evil incarnate) free reign to write whatever damaging, ignorant, sexist crap that flows through their meager minds.

I have doubts that the new conservative government is overly concerned with correcting these types of issues. You're right, Harper may be less into bullshit, but I'm sure he would still like to be re-elected. I keep meaning to write to my MP (new conservative for my riding) and get his take on s.663 of the criminal code (no woman in Canada can be charged with murdering her young child). Who knows, maybe he could use it as a platform for re-election (when not dealing with treasury board stuff)?
