The case is one of two involving Inuk victims of violence arrested after calling the RCMP, mentioned in a scathing ruling this month by a justice of the peace in Nunavut

. The second woman, who reported an assault by her stepfather, was arrested and charged, but released on bail.

The justice of the peace found both women guilty of breaching the bail condition, but gave them both an absolute discharge, which means no conviction is registered against them, and they face no consequences. A, he said, is described by her lawyer as a chronic alcoholic. As a child, she was abused and sent to “too many foster care placements to count.” There has been suicide in her family. “It comes as no surprise that she turned to intoxicating substances to cope.” When she can, she works for agencies serving needy people.

Does the RCMP have arrest quotas? No compassion or medical care offered.

Just another Tuesday for the RCMP. Despicable

When the “victim” is violating her parole terms, she should be arrested. Maybe if the “Victim” wasn’t intoxicated, she wouldn’t have been “abused”. There’s 3 sides to every story and we are only getting one.

Appalling rcmpgrcpolice RCMP_Nat_Div . Can you please stop abusing women, especially Aboriginal women. This is freaking ridiculous, and you know it. Just stop. It's really that f*king simple. Just stop doing it. 100% possible, immediately. Just stop it.

Can’t arrest protestors disrupting our country but can arrest a woman who was just severely beaten. You’re disgusting.

What a bad reputation for the Mounties, never arrest the victim should be mandatory.

Minister reports ‘modest progress’ after blockade talks with First NationMarc Miller declined to tell reporters what that progress was, saying he would deliver that message to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau directly The only people who should have any say on this issue are the majority of Hereditary Chiefs and First Nations on the pipeline route itself and who voted overwhelmingly in its favour Not the few Hereditary Chiefs who voted against it or the self serving activists exploiting them This means 0 progress was made. When did we allow the police to decide not to enforce the law or court injunctions? I thought they were legally obligated to do so. It also appears Trudeau simply no longer wants the job. I wish we would have made progress in the last election.
