Robyn Bourgeois Women Quotations

Not all aboriginal women are prostitutes, drug addicts or homeless. The bottom line is if you have a loved one and they disappear, it doesn't matter what they are, you want to be taken seriously.

(Native people) are constructed as lesser members of Canadian society. Because some of these women are on the wrong side of the law, people rationalize violence and believe that these women get what they deserve, so the cops are inactive.

It took 50 women to disappear from the downtown Eastside (in Vancouver) before anybody did anything.
