Stolen sisters : the story of two missing girls, their families and how Canada has failed indigenous women

Walter, Emmanuelle 1969- (author.). Ouriou, Susan, (translator.). Morelli, Christelle, (translator.).

Summary: A moving and deeply shocking work of investigative journalism that makes the claim that not only is Canada failing its First Nations communities, but that a feminicide is taking place. In 2014, the nation was rocked by the brutal violence against young Aboriginal women Loretta Saunders, Tina Fontaine and Rinelle Harper. But tragically, they were not the only Aboriginal women to suffer that year. In fact, an official report revealed that since 1980, 1,200 Canadian Aboriginal women have been murdered or have gone missing.
