In Canada, discussions and progress on implementing the Calls for Justice from the National Inquiry into MMIWG continue, with federal and provincial bodies highlighting ongoing work to address safety, justice, and systemic racism. Recent government updates emphasize continued coordination with Indigenous partners and various roundtables to monitor progress and expand protective measures. These statements reflect a sustained federal effort, though critics argue more concrete, timelier action is needed to protect Indigenous women, girls, Two-Spirit, and gender-diverse people.
