I saw this very question just the other day so I decided that this is exactly the type of question that I should be able to answer if I have any business at all running the Quora space, “MMIW - Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women”. I’ll give you the link to my post first but then give you the entire text of that post because after all, why should I bother writing a good answer to this question if I’m not going to share the answer right here after this question? As I explain in the post, I intend it to be an ongoing process with new additions from time to time as opportunity presents itself. Thank you whoever you are who wrote this question, it’s not a bad question, it is a fair question that is entirely reasonable to ask. Just don’t blame me that the correct answer must expound on the fact that the RCMP study is entirely wrong about that particular 70% statistic due to the study’s methodology failure. It is a sadly unfortunate probability that at some point high up in the Canadian government’s chain of command responsible for this study there are people who knew very well that the study would be faulty and ordered it to be done in such a fashion that the results would falsely blame indigenous men; in my opinion. Frankly even with the flawed nature of this study’s methodology I am somewhat surprised at the number of somewhat optimistic things that happened after the study’s completion speaking to worthwhile change in the future even if some of those things are slow to take effect. It is not hard to imagine the bitter pill for families who will never see loved ones again if the recommended changes end up being more empty promises while more loved ones continue to go missing or end up in some ditch somewhere after being discarded.Jeff Sjolander's post in MMIW As I said I would do, here is the entire post:MMIW MMIWG MMIWG2S MMIWGT2S Missing and Murdered Indigenous WomenThe official RCMP report’s claim (as reported) that indigenous men are responsible for 70% of the violence against indigenous women is entirely wrong. I believe criticism about the report after the report was compiled shows how the report has provided a very unfortunate talking point for systemic racism denial in Canada. Taken as a whole, the report still does show some hope for change-for-the-better.The following is the link to the official Royal Canadian Mounted Police report on missing and murdered indigenous women and girls followed by credible reports of various sorts in response to that official RCMP report. Feel free to read and consider as much as you want to. I may add a new story from time to time as things change in the public domain.It is worth noting that the northern industries and their man camps behind much of the missing and murdered indigenous women epidemic has not responded well at all to the RCMP report’s findings about industrial responsibility for their share of the problem (which is a HUGE share BTW). They are playing hard ball in the public realm claiming victimhood in response to the new awareness by exerting all the influence that they can buy to bring to bear their prefered view which is that northern communities should be thankful for the jobs and the money brought to their communities instead of getting upset by all the sex-trafficking/sex-slavery which has a hugely disproportionate effect on First Nation (indigenous) Communities.~~~~~~~~~~Missing and murdered Indigenous women and girlsQUOTE:“Missing and murdered Indigenous women and girlsIndigenous women and girls in Canada face greater risks of violence and homicide.

It was wrong.We fact-checked a viral claim about who's killing MMIWG. It was wrong. - June 7th 2019Partial quote, see the link for the rest:“After the national inquiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women released its final report this week, you may have seen a statistic claiming Indigenous men killed 70 percent of murdered Indigenous women.The number was cited by white nationalist Faith Goldy, former editor-in-chief of The Walrus magazine Jonathan Kay and reams of others on social media who sought to undermine the report's finding that Canada's treatment of Indigenous people is genocide.Problem is, there’s no published research that supports the figure. It's based on years of sloppily collected RCMP data that doesn't examine the actual problems underlying violence against Indigenous women, and is grounded in racist assumptions about Indigenous people."What we have is people cherrypicking evidence and choosing evidence that supports their point of view without sharing with the public the limitations of what they're relying on, or putting that information in context," said Cindy Blackstock, executive director of the First Nations Child and Family Caring Society of Canada and member of the Gitksan First Nation."It's really disturbing to me, because how are we to engender an understanding in Canadians about the experiences and the contributions of First Nations, Métis and Inuit people when there's this kind of fabricated evidence being shared around?"”~~~~~~~~~~https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/mmiw-4000-hajdu-1.3450237Partial quote, see the link for the rest:“Confusion reigns over number of missing, murdered indigenous women - Posted: Feb 16, 2016RCMP said 1,017 indigenous women were killed between 1980 and 2012, activists say it's closer to 4,000"I don't have the data, but I know the problem is not about us fighting about the numbers. The problem is making sure that these families that lost a loved one, these survivors that are still living, that their stories lead us to the kind of concrete actions that will actually put an end to their vulnerability and what has been going on," Bennett said Tuesday.The minister said the RCMP "did their very best" in trying to come up with an accurate number, but she said the testimony she heard at the pre-inquiry talks puts that figure in serious doubt."We have heard enough stories to hear that if you count these deaths, that were called a suicide or other things, we have anecdotal evidence that the problem is greater," she said. "I think it's important we look to the root causes."Lavell-Harvard said the RCMP's number is incomplete because of a history of mistrust between the police and indigenous communities.”~~~~~~~~~~Stakes high for Indigenous women still waiting for action after MMIWG inquiryPartial quote, see the link for the rest:Stakes high for Indigenous women still waiting for action after MMIWG inquiry - December 9, 2019“When the long-awaited MMIWG inquiry report came out six months ago, it included 231 recommendations for Canada, meant to make Indigenous women and girls safe. It was also a chance for some families, like Bosse’s, to feel heard.”“That risk is even greater for Indigenous women, despite decades of reports — such as the one produced from the MMIWG inquiry — providing Canadians with clear roadmaps to address the structural forces, like colonialism, underpinning the violence. But last week, the federal government said it would be another six months until an action plan would be ready. That means families like Bosse’s and thousands of other Indigenous people who’ve been offering and asking for solutions are left to wait — again.”“The actual rate could be even higher than anyone knows. Per the inquiry’s investigation, “no one knows an exact number of missing and murdered” Indigenous women, girls and gender-diverse people because thousands of deaths have “likely gone unrecorded.””“Sayers would like to see the government take action sooner rather than later, but she won’t hold her breath — especially since the government said it needed a full year after the report’s release to come up with an action plan.“One year is too late,” she says.”~~~~~~~~~~Certification hearing begins in MMIWG class-action lawsuit against federal government, RCMPPartial quote, see the link for the rest:“Posted September 21, 2020A Federal Court certification hearing in a $600-million proposed class-action lawsuit filed against the federal government and the RCMP began at Regina’s Court of Queen Bench on Monday.The proposed suit, filed by Tony Merchant, alleges systemic negligence from the RCMP while investigating dozens of cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls (MMIWG).“We have a whole series of individuals who’ve sworn affidavits of their personal experience about what happened in their dealings with the police,” Merchant said.”~~~~~~~~~~Pipelines, man camps and murdered Indigenous women in CanadaPartial quote, see the link for the rest:“Pipelines, man camps and murdered Indigenous women in Canada - 5 May 2020In Canada, resource extraction is not only endangering the land – but the lives of Indigenous women.”“‘He liked to torture women’For weeks at a time, April would be sent to Alberta’s oil patch in Fort McMurray to sell sex to the men working there.Alberta’s oil sands have the third-largest oil reserves in the world, after Venezuela and Saudi Arabia. It spans 142,000sq km (54,826sq miles) in northern Alberta, running through the traditional territories of the Cree, Chipewyan and Dene First Nations.Thousands of workers from Canada and elsewhere work on the oil sands. To house these workers, “man camps” were built next to the processing plants. The “man camps” are precisely what their name implies: camps housing mainly male employees working on resource development projects.”“Loss after loss after lossJust over 1,000km (621 miles) west along the infamous Highway of Tears where dozens of women, mostly Indigenous, have gone missing or been found murdered since the 1970s, Delee Nikal is mourning several family members lost to the MMIWG crisis.Delee is a member of the Witset Nation, a community belonging to the Wet’suwet’en band of five nations in northern British Columbia (BC).She knows about loss.Her 15-year-old cousin Cecilia Nikal went missing from Vancouver in 1989.Then another cousin, Delphine Nikal, vanished along the Highway of Tears near Smithers, BC in 1990. She was also 15.Four years later, Delee’s friend Romona Wilson disappeared from Smithers. Romona was a member of the Gitanmaxx band not far from Wet’suwet’en. Her body was later found in a wooded area west of the Smithers airport.More heartache came in 2002 when Delee’s foster sister Danielle Larue, a member of Shuswap First Nation, disappeared from Vancouver’s east side. Police believe she was murdered.”““It’s scary because they’re transient workers who have no connection to us, but they have the backing of the police,” she says, referring to how, since the Wet’suwet’en blockades, CGL workers now have police escorts to enter Wet’suwet’en territories.”““There are attitudes in the industry that are still there since colonisation: that Indigenous women are considered Indians, savages and prostitutes. It’s sad to see and unacceptable,” she says.Michele hopes Canada and industrial development companies will take the recommendations in the report seriously and address the issue of violence against Indigenous women and girls.“We cannot keep doing this the way it has been done. If Canadians, politicians and industry want to include us, speak to us, create a safe space where we can have our say, then we can bring back that balance.””~~~~~~~~~~Indigenous women are preyed on at horrifying rates.

Only one had reported what she suffered to police, and another woman said that, after she reported being sexually harassed by a coworker to a supervisor, the employee was allowed to remain on the job. Their accounts closely mirror the findings in the national inquiry’s final report.”
