The National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) emerged to bring attention to the overrepresentation of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada. It has raised awareness about systemic racism and sexism as well as social and economic conditions experienced by Canada's Indigenous population. Yet, research shows that Indigenous males are the most likely to be murdered in Canada (Mulligan, Axford, & Soecki, 2016). Since Indigenous men are going missing and are murdered in disturbing numbers, and they are fathers, brothers, and sons to Indigenous women and girls, it is understandable that many in the Indigenous community wanted to include them in the inquiry. Our analysis explores how the MMIWG and discourses about inclusion and exclusion have been framed in ways that limit interpretations about the root causes of problems experienced by Indigenous people, especially when they exclude an important part of the Indigenous population—Indigenous males. We draw upon Indigenous perceptions of the inquiry and analyses of social norms and stereotypes in order to explore the conflicting positions and experiences associated with missing and murdered Indigenous people in Canada. We conclude by exploring the need for a more comprehensive inquiry. We recognize that a holistic model of inquiry that honours the voices of Indigenous communities is crucial to a proper investigation into missing and murdered Indigenous people in Canada.

加拿大的失踪和被谋杀的土著人民以及更加包容的视野的当务之急

全国对失踪和被谋杀的土著妇女和女童的调查（MMIWG）应运而生，以引起人们对加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著妇女人数过多的关注。它提高了人们对系统种族主义和性别歧视以及加拿大土著人民所经历的社会和经济状况的认识。然而，研究表明，在加拿大，土著男性最有可能被谋杀（Mulligan，Axford和Soecki，2016年）。由于土著男子正在失踪并以令人不安的人数被谋杀，而且他们是土著妇女和女童的父亲，兄​​弟和儿子，所以可以理解，土著社区中的许多人希望将他们包括在调查中。我们的分析探索了MMIWG以及关于包容和排斥的论述如何以局限性的方式进行解释，这些解释限制了对土著人民所遇到问题的根本原因的理解，尤其是当它们排除了土著人口的重要部分时，即土著男性。我们利用对调查和分析社会规范和定型观念的土著看法，以探索与加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民有关的矛盾立场和经验。最后，我们探索了对更全面查询的需求。我们认识到，一种尊重土著社区声音的整体调查模型对于对加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民进行适当的调查至关重要。特别是当他们排除了土著人口的重要部分时，即土著男性。我们利用对调查和分析社会规范和定型观念的土著看法，以探索与加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民有关的矛盾立场和经验。最后，我们探索了对更全面查询的需求。我们认识到，一种尊重土著社区声音的整体调查模型对于对加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民进行适当的调查至关重要。特别是当他们排除了土著人口的重要部分时，即土著男性。我们利用对调查和分析社会规范和定型观念的土著看法，以探索与加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民相关的矛盾立场和经验。最后，我们探索了对更全面查询的需求。我们认识到，一种尊重土著社区声音的整体调查模型对于对加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民进行适当的调查至关重要。最后，我们探索了对更全面查询的需求。我们认识到，一种尊重土著社区声音的整体调查模型对于对加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民进行适当的调查至关重要。最后，我们探索了对更全面查询的需求。我们认识到，一种尊重土著社区声音的整体调查模型对于对加拿大失踪和被谋杀的土著人民进行适当的调查至关重要。
