I think it's really important to take into account the specific vulnerabilities and colonial system when thinking about these kinds of reforms. Often, for indigenous women in particular, there are additional risk factors such as the risk of being disbelieved, and also financial precarity, that might contribute to a situation of coercive control or make it more difficult to escape the situation of coercive control and then potentially report or not report. Definitely, there need to be support systems in place and holistic interventions in all the factors that lead to violence.
