Madam Chair, this is Sylvie Bérubé speaking. I'm replacing Ms. Larouche, who's otherwise occupied.
I want to thank all the witnesses here for appearing as part of this study, which I think is very relevant. It's high time we talked about everything that's going on relating to indigenous women. I come from the riding of Abitibi—Baie-James—Nunavik—Eeyou, and I'm very well aware of what's going on.
My first question will be for Ms. Étienne.
We know that the unacceptable violence still occurring in resource development industries is definitely inconsistent with the very objectives of reconciliation that the government advocates and must achieve. Since 2019, we've had an important report before us that sheds light on that issue. The purpose of that study is directly related to calls for justice 13.4 and 13.5 stated in the report on the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, or NIMMIWG. That report contains important recommendations to which the federal government must respond.
Why do you think the problem of resource development and violence persists when that violence was named and exposed in this national inquiry in 2015?
