Leaders commit to more for missing and murdered Indigenous people
Co-chairs of the third annual National Indigenous-Federal-Provincial-Territorial Meeting have pledged more action to protect Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQI+ people in Canada. After discussions with over 100 survivors, families, and leaders, they outlined progress on the National Action Plan, including a Red Dress Alert pilot and measures to address human trafficking. Leaders emphasized the importance of collaboration and accountability, and called on all Canadians to urgently act to end the crisis of violence.
