The reality of aboriginal women is far from my little village, in Quebec City, but I have met a lot of women's groups. When there are disappearances, murders of aboriginal women, the image projected of aboriginal women is never positive. They are associated with trouble. I think it's also a matter of education.
What can we do, as a committee, to change the image of the population of aboriginal women? We've been hearing about violence against aboriginal women for only a few years now. I think it's very important for the committee to know what the best tools are in order to help you.
