What the heck?! How is this still happening in Canada. I would’ve thought most of the docs here would’ve been run out of town on a rail for doing something like this.
Agree with the sanctions comment. Make it hurt for our gov to tolerate this bullshit.
What do you mean the Canadian government tolerates it? Sterilization is illegal and prosecutable under Canadian criminal law, and the article cites the recent Senate report condemning the practice.
If there were 12000 bank robberies or murders which were all related, I doubt we would still have the same string of illegal activity happening.
Making something is Criminal, illegal or condemned won’t stop it, there needs to actually consequences that occur. There a bunch of people that need some severe repercussions if we expect this stop.
because indigenous people are not people in the eyes of authorities
