Unfortunately, the same issues occur here in Australia and in other countries too. Australia's probable next prime minister, Dutton (who models some aspects of his policies and behaviour after Trump) refuses to stand in front of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags at his press conferences.
It’s terrible what’s happened to these women – but no one wants to shine a light on the terrible conditions they come from, run by their ‘own people’. And before people cry racism and for more $$$, the reserves in Canada receive the most taxpayer money than almost any other govt department (double what the military gets!!!). Yet it’s unaccountable (not allowed to audit native chiefs) and they have consistently shown poor results for such massive funding. Why???
Being from the US and having grown up and lived on the Northern border, Canadians are VERY fast to point out how terrible they perceive the US is, and this just shows they love to protest about everyone else while making sure the curtain is pulled over their blatant racist culture.
As an Indigenous Canadian I have to say I really liked the thought put into the discussion here.
I know of an Indigenous man who was a black out drunk and now that he’s aging and has no memory of what he did he thinks he was a great father. In fact, both him and his sister find it easier to blame the victim then to look more closely to their role in the abuse.
On the other hand, the inability to look inward when it comes to wrongdoing is the result of intergenerational trauma.
Truth hurts. We can’t work towards reconciliation when truth is ignored or dismissed not on a micro as well as macro level.
The good news is, that many families are dealing with intergenerational trauma and the young kids are growing up with greater stability. It’s not easy to be the kid and be making healthier decisions. You look to your parents to bring that support but it’s not always possible. It’s hard work breaking the chain to allow for the next generation to benefit.
as a native woman, thank you. truly thank you. no one in canada talks about this. in fact, indigenous people are so ignored and dehumanized in canadian society. people don’t even pretend to care. canada is an extremely hateful place. i can see peoples hatred in their eyes when they look at me. i know i’m not safe here. but we can’t just leave. this is our ancestors home. thank you truly. i haven’t even watched a second and i’m still pouring out my thanks. truly.
Blaming these issues on Europeans is just opting out. This is a domestic violence issue. You would find the same problem in Africa. A lot of these ethnic communities have a long history of violence issues.
I was in Canada for a while, gotta say a LOT of people up there put way too much emphasis on the "White" in "Great White North." And I'm from a part of the US that didn't manage to make the kkk go into hiding until 2004.
The Canadians should stop criticizing other countries' human rights issues and using every opportunity to take jabs at foreign governments. The Canadian government and politicians often use human rights as a political stunt to gain self-political capital, but in reality, they don't genuinely care about human rights, either at home or abroad. This is evident in their treatment of Indigenous people, who continue to face significant challenges and injustices. It's hypocritical to point fingers at others while ignoring the issues within their own borders.
Glad to see a video about this, but unfortunately the average Canadian that isn’t indigenous does not care, our government doesn’t help, our Cheifs and treaties aren’t being heard/honoured at the bare minimum. Canada doesn’t want to solve this, they don’t even do what the promise in the 1800s. I hope things will change. Canadians need to change 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Strangely enough could not find any statistics of Canadian men murdered and missing, but judging just by overall murder numbers in Canada last 5 years (4000), one could assume that men are getting murdered much more often than indigenous women. Canada (map)
This is why our National day of Truth and Reconciliation day is just such a joke. It's just a day on the calendar. Meanwhile, atrocities are still happening and the government isn't lifting a finger.
Canada is woke, why could it possibly be anti poc??? 🤷

They kill their own.

I think the term is projection
This is fucking horrible. I'm glad you brought this into the lime light.
Utter tragedy.
Cults are running sacrifice rings probably.
Evil guys are always Bald

Because of abuse from indigenous men. They want to bury that so they can somehow blame and implicate white men

y’all it’s 2024. most native people don’t live on reserves anymore. stop trying to justify it with that.
Canada, the biggest shitstain of a lie since the american dream 😒😑
Not just Canada happens here in US as well
Glade, you covered this. ✌🏻❤️🙏🏻
Thank you.

Sketchy activities and choosing a rough lifestyle.
Its not just Canada. There is a huge problem across the turtle island. MMIR/MMIW

Ask the indigenous men
Ask the native gangs where all the women are going.
Racism didn't go away, it became institutionalized.
Sounds like a serial killer (s). This is such a WTF report
