Stacey Dooley Investigates – Canada’s Lost Girls
This emotive and hard-hitting film takes Stacey to a remote part of Canada to investigate why the regular disappearance or murder of hundreds of young women from indigenous communities has largely been ignored.
She discovers that in the last 30 years an estimated 4,000 women from these first nation communities have gone missing or been killed. And the vast majority were aged under 30. Why were so many of their killers never brought to justice – and why have incidents like the brutal murders of two 15-year-old girls failed to make the headlines?
Stacey uncovers a tale of shocking racism and sexism by police, as well as prejudice from government services.
