Six unconnected stories. The same tragic ending. | The Big Story

Over 11 days recently, six Indigenous people were killed in separate encounters with police departments across the country. The outcome of any one incident isn’t surprising, but so many, so quickly, is shocking. And there are hopes amidst the loss that this might, perhaps, be the thing that shocks the country’s leaders to action. On Monday, MPs in Ottawa held an emergency meeting.

And what would it take to create impactful change? Credit to : CityNews
