P.A. woman raises awareness through fundraiser
One Prince Albert resident is striving to raise public awareness about missing and murdered aboriginal women.
Donna L. Soles has worked with the Indian and Métis Friendship Centre in Prince Albert for 15 years. Being a Cree woman, Soles said preventing the kidnappings and murders of aboriginal women is a cause that is very close to her heart.
“The young guys can’t use the women, we’re not tools and we’re not to be beat on or anything, they need to respect the women,” Soles said.
She wants to teach girls to stand up for themselves. “When you say no, it means no.”
