Thank you, Madam Chair.
I thank our witnesses for being with us this morning.
Your family stories of missing and murdered people are extremely moving.
I would also like to thank you for reminding us that your stories affect not only indigenous women and girls, but also men and boys.
I've travelled the road from Banff to Jasper, and Ms. Ferreri reminded me that there is no mobile phone coverage in this area. This is also the case in several other rural areas. We've already talked about this.
We're in solution mode here, and I'd like to hear your views on the following issues.
Why is it important, beyond the red dress alert on phones, to find a way of rallying other people?
I'm thinking, for example, of initiatives involving truckers who want to raise awareness, contribute to the fight against the disappearance and murder of indigenous women and girls and act as scouts.
I'm also thinking of certain initiatives in airports, such as the "Not In My City" awareness campaign.
We also want to make posters of missing and murdered people.
What do you see as a complement to the red dress alert on telephones to make sure you cover as many areas as possible and make up for certain shortcomings in cellphone coverage?
