An aboriginal MP delivered a powerful plea Friday for a national inquiry into murdered and missing indigenous women, recalling his own brothers death as a five-year-old in a residential school 60 years ago. Romeo Saganash, an NDP member from northern Quebecs Nunavik region, implored the Conservative government to call an inquiry after the New Democrats successfully moved a motion allowing them to raise the issue in the House of Commons. The violence that is perpetrated against indigenous women is the violence against the environment today, and the same violence that assaulted parents and grandparents in residential schools, Saganash told the chamber. youtube/watch?v=M8DfNMxdiYY
