First Nations families rally at Manitoba’s legislature, urge governments to search for missing remains
The families of two First Nations women whose remains are believed to be in a Winnipeg-area landfill took to the steps of Manitoba’s legislature Wednesday to deliver one message to the federal and provincial governments.
One person held a sign that said, “Stop wasting time. The landfill is not a grave,” while others said, “No more stolen sisters.” A recent feasibility study, completed by an Indigenous-led committee and funded by the federal government, estimated it could take up to three years and cost $184 million to search the landfill for the remains of Harris and Myran. Family members are pushing for the search to go ahead to bring peace and closure.Since the study was completed last month, families and Indigenous leaders have engaged in what they call a game of “political yo-yo.
The office of Marc Miller, minister of Crown-Indigenous relations, said it is “diligently” reviewing the study.
