Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls  Madam Chair, we heard today the government side, unfortunately, frame this about hope, about these communities demanding hope.

Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls  Madam Chair, the hon. member quite rightly identified the need for targeted interventions.
