Make or break moment:’ Inuit demand full inclusion in MMIW inquiry – CBC

Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami and Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada send recommendations to feds

May 4, 2016

Two national Inuit organizations have issued reports calling on the federal government to ensure the upcoming inquiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls fully includes Inuit.

Both Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK) and Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada have been meeting with affected Inuit families across Canada in advance of the inquiry. After listening to the stories shared by families, each organization has compiled a report sent to the minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs outlining recommendations on how to shape the inquiry and what to expect as outcomes from the process.
