Canada: It is not just women who are the victims of spousal violence

This is a very rare event for this type of article to be posted at cbc.ca This is a positive signal of change in the mainstream media that has largely ignored this issue. Excerpt:

"In the almost 40 years since the first shelter for battered women opened its doors, we have made noticeable progress in dealing with and denouncing domestic violence.

Nevertheless, much still needs to be done and the biggest challenge, in my view, is what to do about men.

Not men as perpetrators — there we seem to have a handle on things. Rather, I'm talking about the hundred thousand or so confirmed male victims who are, often violently, abused by their female partners every year."
