Around 80 people gathered outside of Prince George City Hall this morning (Monday), demanding a Manitoba landfill be searched for the bodies of four missing Indigenous women.
It was one of many rallies being held across Canada, as today has been named “Search the Landfills International Day of Action.”
“We want to bring our sisters home, so they can rest in peace,” said Loretta John while speaking to the crowd.
“How can they rest in peace in a landfill? How can this Mayor think that it’s not safe, but it was okay for the serial killer to do it and then dump these sisters?”
Indigenous drummers performed songs on the steps of City Hall.
Following the rally, the crowd marched through downtown Prince George, chanting “search the landfill.”
