Mr. Speaker, over the span of 19 days, seven indigenous people were killed by police. Communities are disturbed, but unfortunately these tragedies are known all too well by indigenous people. This is colonialism and systemic racism that continues to persist under consecutive governments. First nations, Métis and Inuit have the solutions to end this violence: No more indigenous children getting a bullet instead of help. Why will the Minister of Public Safety not act to ensure accountability and justice for these families?
