Ontario's police watchdog is not recommending criminal charges against Ottawa police officers who shot and killed a man attacking a family outside their home this past summer.

Ottawa police officers who shot and killed a man during a stabbing attack at an Alta Vista home in June won’t face criminal charges, Ontario’s police watchdog has ruled.

Most of the women at a Take Back the Night march on Thursday evening had a story. And they weren't good ones.

One night in June, a troubled young man came knocking at the front door of the Ready family home on a quiet suburban street in Ottawa. Minutes later, three people were dead. Now, a father and daughter are left to find meaning amid their grief.

Advocates are calling for the term 'femicide' to be included in the Criminal Code of Canada, ahead of a funeral service for a mother and daughter who were killed in Ottawa's Alta Vista neighbourhood three weeks ago. It was one of 86 recommendations released by a jury in a Renfrew County coroner's inquest, on the same day of the stabbing.

The 19-year-old woman who survived a vicious attack that led to the deaths of her mother and younger sister has been discharged from the hospital, a family friend says.

When the initial amount of $50,000 was reached, the goal was raised to $75,000.

Police shot and killed Joshua Graves, 21, as he was stabbing Catherine Ready, according to the SIU.

One by one, mourners lined up patiently to lay flowers at the home of 50-year-old Anne-Marie Ready and 15-year-old Jasmine Ready, the Ottawa mother and daughter killed in Alta Vista last week.
