Vancouver is no stranger to the tragedy of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, what with the Downtown Eastside, the Pickton case and subsequent policing failure.
It is against this backdrop, the city hosts the National Inquiry into MMIWG from April 4 to 8.
At least 100 witnesses are scheduled to testify at this 15th and final community hearing.
