On October 04, the National Day of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Gender Diverse people (MMIWG2S+), the IAMC-TMX Socioeconomic Subcommittee (SESC) holds space for families, friends, and communities who continue to live with unimaginable loss. Otherwise known as Sisters in Spirit Day, this day is a reminder that the crisis of MMIWG2S+ is historical and ongoing, stemming from the systemic marginalization of Indigenous women through policy, lack of accountability, and injustice. Indigenous women, girls, two-spirit and gender diverse people continue to face disproportionate levels of violence in Canada. The SESC encourages all Canadians to be a part of ending the crisis of violence, disappearance, and murder of Indigenous women, girls and gender diverse people – doing so is a shared responsibility. Listen and learn, and advocate in your workplaces, institutions and communities for addressing the root causes of violence and anti-racism, for improving public service cultural competency, and for advocating for legal system reforms. #MMIWG2S #sistersinspirit #honourthewomen

Spill Response Exercise at Chawathil First Nation Indigenous Monitors took part in a hands-on spill response exercise led by Lori Solsberg, who’s been working in the field since 1986! He even brought along a spill response plan he wrote nearly 40 years ago. The training brought together: Monitors from across the region, including a participant from Montana First Nation who flew in for the session. Chawathil’s own FireSmart crew, which is led by a local woman and focused on fire mitigation and emergency response. This training helps strengthen emergency preparedness and supports Indigenous leadership in environmental protection. Photos credit: Mary Fowles

Safety First: Indigenous Monitoring in Action The Indigenous Monitoring Subcommittee (IMSC) is always working to improve safety—on the land and in our communities. Safety isn’t just about rules. It’s about respect: Respect for nature: don’t leave garbage behind. Respect for culture: say a prayer and offer tobacco for protection. Respect for each other: build a strong safety culture together. At a recent IMSC meeting, Peter Snow shared summer safety tips for Albertans and reviewed a Health & Safety Program document. The message was clear: safety is everyone’s responsibility, and we must continually advocate for higher safety standards. Photo credit: Mary Fowles
