Dawn Crey. Ramona Wilson. Daleen Kay Bosse. These are just three out
of hundreds of Aboriginal women who have gone missing or been murdered
in Canada over the past thirty years. Directed by acclaimed Métis
filmmaker Christine Welsh, Finding Dawn is a compelling documentary
and epic journey. (Christine Welsh /Canada /2006 /73 min)

*Stolen Sisters: A documentary*
Stolen Sisters is a documentary about Missing and Murdered Aboriginal
Women in Canada, inspired by the 2005 report by Amnesty International
entitled, “Stolen Sisters: A Human Rights Response to Discrimination
and Violence against Indigenous Women in Canada.” (Canada/2007/60 min)

The discussion will be facilitated by Bridget Tolley.

Bridget Tolley is a member of the Kitigan Zibi First Nation in Quebec.
Her mother was struck and killed by the Quebec Police on October 6th,
2001.She believes that there was homicidal negligence on the part of
Surete du Quebec officers and is presently working on a complete
review of the investigation, arguing that homicide files were filled
with inaccuries and incongruent reports and that police procedures
were not conducted according to accepted practices.Bridget feels the
dignity and respect of the deceased and family members was greatly
breached by all police officers and the investigation team involved.
