- Aboriginal women represented 174 of the 1,750 active female missing persons cases in CPIC across all police jurisdictions as of April 2015. Of those 174, 63 were non-suspicious circumstances
- In 100% of cases where the homicide of an Aboriginal female was solved, the offender was known to the victim. This compares to 93% for non-Aboriginals. 73% of female Aboriginal victims of homicide were murdered by a spouse, ex-spouse or family member, this compares to 77% for non-Aboriginals

The solve rates are not unknown, the authorities are not ignoring Aboriginal victims and it is clearly known who is responsible for these crimes. Instead of looking to run an inquiry to get an outcome that is favorable to a certain agenda, any efforts would be better spend figuring out how to resolve the root issues. And not just dumping more money at the problem.
