There's extremely limited access to justice in the communities. Nunavut is primarily served by the circuit court system, so that's a major obstacle to access to justice, for not only women. There's a shortage of judges in Nunavut who are able to hear and dispense of cases. There are some really fundamental issues around access to justice across Inuit Nunangat.
I would be remiss if I didn't take this opportunity to at least touch upon the issue of human trafficking, the commodification of sex. Far too many Inuit women find themselves in cities like Ottawa, Montreal, Winnipeg, Edmonton, without the education or contemporary survival skills for life in the city. They are far too often very vulnerable, frankly, to being preyed upon by human sex traffickers and being forced into marginalized and very risky circumstances.
That absolutely links to the administration of justice. I can't really speak to legal aid. I'd welcome a further conversation.
