MMIWG stands for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, referring to the ongoing crisis of violence affecting Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit people in Canada at rates far higher than the general population. The 2019 National Inquiry into MMIWG concluded that this represents genocide resulting from colonial policies, systemic racism, and government failures. The inquiry's Calls for Justice require action from all government levels, including municipalities. Municipal responses include improving police training, supporting Indigenous-led organizations, creating safer public spaces, and ensuring Indigenous voices inform service delivery. Addressing MMIWG is a key component of reconciliation efforts across Canada.
