Yes, definitely. I think if we get down to the root cause of it, we need to invest in indigenous women's safety. That's the bottom line.
We know that the issue is there. We know there are business cases to be built. We know there's data and there's a lack of data, particularly when you're looking at the root cause of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls in that we don't have the data around the entire story, like the death story, for instance. How many women have died? Who killed them? What were the causes of death? All of those things would lead to policy change at a systemic level.
The same thing goes when you're look at addressing human trafficking or violence against indigenous women. We have seen the data show that non-indigenous women continue to have their safety increase, and it's because of the investments into them and into their systems. Their systems do not work for us as indigenous women. We need to see investments into indigenous women's physical safety immediately, really looking at that as the systemic approach we have to start to address.
We need that core sustainable funding for indigenous women's agencies. That hasn't happened here in Canada, and there has to be that long-term, sustainable funding to support indigenous women's safety.
