“We call on the Government of Canada to act now to ensure full implementation of the Calls for Justice, not only on human trafficking, but also policing, corrections, the impacts of resource extraction, and interjurisdictional and cross-border coordination,” said National Chief Woodhouse Nepinak. “We know what’s possible when governments and institutions act with political will. That same commitment is needed now for every First Nations woman, girl, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ person across this country.”
The report is available here: 2025 Progress Report on Breathing Life into the Calls for Justice: Thematic Analysis on Human Trafficking.
