Indigenous Women, Girls, & 2-Spirited People platforms

Here's what the 2023 Manitoba election parties are promising.
We don't have any PC policies on Indigenous Women, Girls, & 2-Spirited People.

NDP
  • Reinstate the Special Advisor on Indigenous Women's Issues

    "Additionally, the Manitoba NDP will reinstate the role of the Special Advisor on Indigenous Women’s Issues, who will work directly with MMIWG2S+ families and report directly to the responsible Minister." — mbndp.ca, 2023-08-11

  • Establish 24/7 drop-in centres for Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2-Spirited Peoples in Winnipeg, Brandon, and Thompson
  • Create a specific Indigenous Victim Services Unit in the justice department
  • Review and modernise the Compensation for Victims of Crime programme to align it with MMIWG2S+ families' needs
  • Start a provincial database of MMIWG2S+
  • Set police standards for MMIWG2S+ cases

    "Furthermore, a Manitoba NDP administration will aim to empower law enforcement agencies in capturing violent perpetrators by ensuring police standards are in place when MMIWG2S+ cases are investigated such as: confirming that nation-wide police data systems are consistently utilized and standardizing how sexual assault cases are investigated." — mbndp.ca, 2023-08-11

Liberal
  • Create Indigenous-led advisory bodies within police forces

    "Implement Indigenous-led advisory bodies within policing agencies to ensure gender-based violence is a priority." — Dougald Lamont & the Manitoba Liberals — Real Choice, Real Change
