The Spin

Left narrative

Although Jeremy Skibicki was fortunately convicted, his murderous rampage highlights a broader crisis in Canada, where Indigenous women make up a startlingly high percentage of female homicides. With over 1K missing or murdered between 1980-2012, this vulnerable group faces systemic violence and discrimination. Canada must urgently invest more in safety, emergency services, and awareness to protect Indigenous women and girls.

Right narrative

Indigenous women do face a dire homicide crisis, with rates six times higher than non-Indigenous women. Yet, the Liberal government's soft-on-crime policies have worsened this by enabling repeat offenders' release, driving a violent crime surge since 2015. It appears the government is ignoring the fact that Indigenous perpetrators make up almost 90% of cases but get lighter charges and shorter sentences. This undermines justice and safety for all.
