The report also said most Indigenous women and girls were found to be killed by someone they knew, and those accused in most cases were also Indigenous.

Seems like a failure of res police forces rather than racism.

it shows one hell of alot more than just failure of police-services/enforcement:

it shows failure of parenting, of education, of community, of journalism, of acceptance-within-Canada, and much more...

How do you manufacture violent-crime in a community/city?

Increase the young-male unemployment, and the young males will assault whomever they can take it out on.

That automatic function has been known for decades, ttbomk.

What's apparently happening is the same: males taking some internally-felt-harm & multiplying it, enforcing it onto others, who are unable to defend themselves.

I wish male-culture valued integrity anywhere near as much as it values bulling successfully, not just in this, or that, race/culture, but across all of 'em.

Thank you for highlighting the point you did, Hoomin...

Salut, Namaste, & Kaizen, eh?

Hugely embarrassing for canada, and shows our historic blind spot for indigenous lives.
