Report raising alarms: Indigenous women and girls overrepresented in trafficking

A new report released this week is highlighting the intersection between the disappearance of Indigenous women and human trafficking in Canada. According to the report by Thomson Reuters, despite being only 5 per cent of the population, Indigenous women and girls account for over 50 per cent of trafficking victims. While the data may not come as a surprise to Indigenous peoples, it is a cause for alarm. Also, this week we're discussing a new poll that finds most Canadians think the country is making progress on reconciliation. Joining host Dennis Ward are Jennifer Laewetz, CEO of Paskwâw Strategies and Niigaan Sinclair, columnist with the Winnipeg Free Press. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.

FSIN breaks silence on forensic audit findings – but does it address concerns?

The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations in Saskatchewan has broken its silence on the forensic audit of its finances. Indigenous Services Canada and auditing firm KPMG found $34 million in questionable spending. A statement from the organization, which represents more than 70 First Nations in Saskatchewan, says it has faced unwarranted attacks in relation to the audit. For more, our Truth & Politics panel is here. Joining host Dennis Ward on the Truth and Politics panel are Jennifer Laewetz, CEO of Paskwâw Strategies and Niigaan Sinclair, columnist with the Winnipeg Free Press. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.

Cracks in the system: What's actually going on with Jordan's Principle?

In this episode, we're putting Jordan's Principle InFocus. For nearly 20 years the federal government has been running a program called Jordan's Principle. The program is supposed to provide First Nations children living on reserve with the same services children living off-reserve could receive. It's named after Jordan River Anderson – a boy from Norway House Cree Nation who was born with multiple health issues in a Winnipeg hospital. Throughout his short life, Canada and the province of Manitoba argued over who would pay for his at-home care. In the end, Jordan never made it home. Twenty years after his death, the program is in shambles—and it seems no one knows what is and isn't covered. APTN's Parliament Hill reporter Karyn Pugliese joins host Cierra Bettens to unravel what is going on. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.

What do this week's political moves mean for Indigenous families?

Plenty of developments on the federal political scene this week. Former chief and now Member of Parliament Billy Morin has been appointed the Conservative opposition critic for Indigenous Services.
