They often end up in the correctional system without the services, without prevention, and without the needed supports. Obviously it is a major gap and we hear nothing about this from the government. It has a fiduciary obligation to first nations and aboriginal peoples. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2476798\" data-originallang=\"en\">I would certainly like to hear from the member how the government is letting go of that obligation and leaving aboriginal people out in the cold.</p>",

Ces personnes aboutissent souvent dans le syst\u00e8me correctionnel sans les services, les mesures de pr\u00e9vention et les appuis dont elles ont besoin. C'est \u00e9videmment un probl\u00e8me important, mais le gouvernement ne le mentionne pas. Ce dernier a une obligation fiduciaire envers les membres des Premi\u00e8res nations et les Autochtones.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2476798\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais que la d\u00e9put\u00e9e explique comment le gouvernement se soustrait \u00e0 cette obligation et abandonne les Autochtones \u00e0 leur sort.</p>"
