Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you for testifying and sharing your expertise.
My question is somewhat along the same lines. I don't know if it probes as deeply as the root causes of the disappearances.
There appear to be a fair number of resources dedicated toward preventing the deaths, and of course the disappearances, yet there appear to be a wide range of circumstances under which people are disappearing—indigenous women and girls have disappeared.
Have our studies permitted us to identify patterns, repetitive instances, or circumstances leading to disappearances? I don't know if it goes so far as root causes, but when you're doing investigations or you're an officer in the field, there should be some clues, tips, things to look for—flags.
