The Inquiry itself is also a matter of respect for all Aboriginal women, and should have NWAC playing a lead role in every step of the inquiry process, including the\u00a0implementation of inquiry recommendations. This will hopefully ensure that the process is yet not another example of \u201ccolonial imperialism and patriarchal dominance\u201d. With the interest of violence against women at its core, the VAW hub stands in solidarity with NWAC. Our members look forward to this process, and see it as a major step towards ending violence against women and girls in Canada.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/communityfirst\/wp-content\/uploads\/VAW-Letter-to-Trudeau2015.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Read the letter<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by\u00a0Anna Przednowek, PhD student in Social Work, VAW Hub RA Recently, CFICE&#8217;s\u00a0Violence Against Women (VAW) hub community leaders and senior scholars commended Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in a formal letter, for committing to hold a National Inquiry into Missing Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.
