PUBLIC PRESS RELEASE
From Family of Baby Jake - Attawapiskat First Nation
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Our family is living through a tragedy no family should ever face.
We are asking a question that no parent, grandparent, or relative should ever have to ask: Why are we burying our grandson? Baby Jake should still be alive today. Instead, we are grieving a child whose death was entirely preventable — a child failed at every level by the
healthcare system responsible for protecting him.

Amnesty International supports call for public inquiry into 1970s RCMP spying program The RCMP's so-called "Native Extremism" program reportedly saw the agency infiltrate the 1970s Indigenous rights movement in Canada.

The human rights violations described in the records about the RCMP’s ‘Native Extremism’ program are shocking and unacceptable for any human rights-abiding country.

An apology alone will not address this injustice
