NDP demands national action plan to end violence against Indigenous women and girls

NDP MP Leah Gazan demands to know when the Liberal government will release its national action plan on the recommendations of the inquiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, which the Liberal government said earlier this year was delayed to the COVID-19 pandemic. Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Carolyn Bennett says the fall economic statement pledged $781.5 million to back up the plan.
