Mr. Speaker, the so-called action plan is not working.
Aboriginal women and girls are still being abused and going missing. Rinelle Harper's ordeal has been added to the long list of horror stories. Nearly 1,200 aboriginal women and girls have gone missing or been murdered.
Aboriginal communities are calling for a national inquiry so that the government will finally take a serious look at violence against women. No more excuses.
Why are the Conservatives refusing to conduct such an inquiry?
