First and foremost, we know that when we're looking at remote, isolated areas, they do not have the infrastructure to support technology. That's very problematic, because if they had the infrastructure to support the technology, we could ultimately save lives.
When you're looking at the revolving door of policing and also at a lot of inexperienced officers going into remote, isolated communities, you see that if women are trying to obtain protection orders or even if there is.... You know, often there are no RCMP in the community to enforce that protection order, so that ultimately puts indigenous women at further risk of continuing to experience violence or dying as a result of a homicide.
Therefore, it's really critical that we look at this and really look at.... There's a lot of dialogue about jurisdictional boundaries as well, and that's critical, because when you're looking at first nations communities, they're federally regulated, right? They're also embedded within the province, so it's quite complex when you're looking at it. I think we really need to look at the resources and how indigenous women are being failed in these communities repeatedly. I think it's critical that we really align with the specific calls for justice to really protect them and keep them alive, ultimately, and safe.
