💜 Savannah Kulla, 29

Savannah was a beloved daughter, mother and friend. She was described as smart, kind and selfless, with a passion for dance and a career as a social worker. Above all, she was a devoted and loving mother to her four young children. She is deeply missed by her family, friends and community.

Savannah was killed in Brampton on October 21, 2025. A 38-year-old man, reported to be Savannah’s former intimate partner, was identified as responsible for her death. He later died during an interaction with police. Media reports indicated a history of intimate partner violence and that he had been released on bail at the time of her death.

We share Savannah’s story as part of our Every 6 Days campaign, remembering the women behind the statistics and raising awareness about femicide in Canada.

Every 6 days in Canada, a woman is killed in an act of femicide, often by her current or former intimate partner.

We can’t stay silent. We must act.

You don’t have to build your future alone.

SHE Builds is an employment pathway for survivors of gender-based violence that provides skilled trades training, one-on-one personalized support, and job placement opportunities.

Unlike a typical training program, SHE Builds was designed with survivors in mind. With mentorship opportunities, financial assistance, community support, and training for employers, this program helps create a stronger foundation for success.

By bringing together five community partners, SHE Builds connects workplace readiness programming,
skilled trades education, employer training, and a survivor-centered approach.

We’re not just providing training. We’re building a pathway to employment.

Every career starts with a blueprint. SHE Builds is here to help survivors turn their vision into a future they can build on.

💜 Tracey Duncan, 54

Tracey was beloved by her friends and family. She was described as a loving, resilient and kind mother of three boys and a devoted grandmother. Her laughter was contagious and her kindness touched those around her.

Tracey was killed in Ottawa on June 2, 2025. A 57-year-old man, reported to be Tracey’s former intimate partner, has been charged with second-degree murder in connection with her death. He was also reportedly charged in connection with other incidents before and after Tracey’s death. Ottawa police have described Tracey’s killing as a femicide.
