B.C. missing women inquiry “fundamentally flawed”

Amnesty International has joined 14 other groups, including the Vancouver February 14th Women’s Memorial March Committee, the Native Women’s Association, the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs, and the B.C. Civil Liberties Association, in announcing that our organizations are unwilling to lend credibility to the deeply flawed B.C. Missing Women Commission of Inquiry by participating in its upcoming policy review processes.

In letters issued today, a wide range of organizations that had been invited to participate in upcoming Policy Forums and Study Commission, detailed a series of fundamental concerns about the Commission’s ability to reach a fair and unbiased conclusion.
