However, she channeled this into an initiative that aims to educate the public on mental health and bullying while supporting those who are currently suffering from either issue. The Amanda Todd Legacy is an organization that is truly changing the youth perspective of mental health and bullying in Canada." Everyday Political Citizen (EPCitizen) is a project to tell local stories about Canadians' participation in their democracy. Carol Todd of Port Coquitlam, British Columbia was nominated by Ron McKinnon, MP for Coquitlam-Port Coquitlam and was one of 108 EP Citizen's nominated in the over 30+ category. She was then shortlisted with voting taking place from a list of chosen jurors.
Juror Andrew Ference says: "Carol Todd of Port Coquitlam, BC, is my nominee for the 2016 Everyday Political Citizen. This fantastic woman suffered an unimaginable loss when her young daughter Amanda took her own life after being cyber bullied and harassed. Carol has not only shared her story to shine a light on this serious issue but she has also started the Amanda Todd Legacy organization that is helping youth dealing with mental health issues and bullying in Canada. I not only nominate Carol but applaud her for her bravery and determination to confront this important work."
