A former Nunavut regional director of health is urging the territorial government to conduct an independent review of all cases of sudden infant death syndrome handled by its current chief coroner.
Elise Van Schaik’s call comes after a damming report released Monday on the circumstances surrounding the death of three-month-old Makibi Timilak in 2012.
The report is calling for a formal inquest into the death and Timilak’s father is calling on the territory to fire Suramala.
