A voice for missing women; Thursday ceremony spotlights hundreds of murdered natives
By Rachel Punch, The Sudbury Star
Savannah Trudeau often doesn't feel safe when she's alone and, as a young aboriginal woman, those feelings are justified.
Hundreds of First Nations women - including about 30 in Ontario - have been murdered or simply vanished in the last few decades.
The following statement was delivered by a member of Sudbury Against War and Occupation at a recent event in Sudbury honouring the memory of indigenous women murdered and gone missing in Canada.
Good afternoon.
My name is Clarissa Lassaline and I’m involved with a group of Sudbury folks firmly opposed to war and occupation. The fact that Canada exists as an occupation of First Nations Lands has become increasingly important to our thinking about indigenous struggles and white settler solidarity and responsibility.

Sudbury Residents Honour Indigenous Women Murdered or Missing in Canada
SUDBURY, ONTARIO, February 14, 2008 – Hundreds of Indigenous women in Canada have been murdered or have gone missing over the last 20 years. All too often, the authorities have done little or nothing in response.
Hey Everyone,
So I've been floating this idea in my head for a bit..... I would like
allies, partners, companions in it, or alternatively good critiques of the
idea.
I am very curious to know how many people would be interested in starting
an (un)settler network, that can share and learn collectively, but also
meets up for workshops.

TUCSON, Arizona – Mohawk Warriors joined in solidarity with Subcomandante Marcos and the Zapatistas at the Gathering of Indigenous Peoples of América. They quickly learned that one factor is the same for Indigenous Peoples all over the world: Corporations intent on seizing the land, minerals and water have no regard for the lives or rights of Indigenous Peoples.
