My Motion M-411 on missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls

Posted on October 4, 2012

Today, on this this National Day of Remembrance for missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls, my motion M-411 was put on the Order Paper in the House of Commons

M-411 — October 2, 2012 — Ms. Bennett (St. Paul’s) — That, in the opinion of the House, the tragic and inequitable issue of missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls is of critical importance for all Canadians; that the government has failed to provide justice for the victims, healing for the families, or an end to the violence; and that the House call on the government to take immediate action to deal with this systemic problem and call a public inquiry. M-411 — 2 octobre 2012 — Mme Bennett (St. Paul’s) — Que, de l’avis de la Chambre, la tragédie injuste que représentent le meurtre et la disparition de femmes et de jeunes filles autochtones revêt une importance cruciale aux yeux de tous les Canadiens; que le gouvernement n’est pas parvenu à rendre justice aux victimes, à atténuer la douleur des familles ni à mettre fin à la violence; que la Chambre exhorte le gouvernement à agir dès maintenant pour régler ce problème systémique et à mettre sur pied une commission d’enquête publique.
