Summary: | Content Warning: Sexualized violence, colonial violence, human trafficking Within Canadian anti-trafficking policies, pan-Indigenous approaches are commonly used to amalgamate First Nations, Inuit, and Métis experiences. Given that Canada frames human trafficking as an issue that disproportionately impacts First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples, the federal government’s pan-Indigenous policy approach requires close scrutiny. As part of my honours research, my JCURA project examines differences between mainstream governmental discourses on human trafficking and how critical BIPOC scholars conceive Indigenous women’s experiences of human trafficking. This project calls for alternatives to pan-Indigenous approaches by instead considering the broad differences between First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities.
