Sask. leaders weigh in on recent MMIWG developments
Leaders in Saskatchewan are weighing in on the departure of Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Girls commissioner Marylin Poitras and the overall state of the inquiry.
NDP Federal MP Georgina Jolibois, from the Desnethe-Missinippi-Churchill River riding penned a letter directly to Chief Commissioner Marion Buller following the resignation of Marilyn Poitras.
Jolibois said she was concerned by the resignation, particularly because Poitras’ resignation letter said ‘It is clear to me that I am unable to perform my duties as a commissioner with the process designed in its current structure.’
“We need to get the process right. This process must work for the families and survivors of missing and murdered Indigenous women,” Jolibois’ letter read.
