Powered and developed by. Echaquan's death took place almost a year to the day after a public inquiry released recommendations aimed at improving Indigenous people's access to government services in Quebec.

Saint-Charles-Borromée, Quebec

Though Quebec's minister responsible for Indigenous affairs said this week that dozens of those recommendations have been implemented, both Boyer and Nakuset question her claim. After all the inquests and recommendations, both women feel that little real change has occurred. She said there needs to be a "national response" that sets clear standards for hospitals and clear consequences for those who violate them.

Nakuset, who organized a protest in downtown Montreal on Saturday, is hopeful that what happened to Echaquan could be a turning point for Canada, the way the death of George Floyd during an arrest by police in Minnesota galvanized the Black Lives Matter movement in the United States.
