I'll agree with you on your point though, i strongly suggest them indigenous police to look into these cases...RCMP sorta or dare i say "look out onto themselves(not unless you're highly regarded for them to kick their horse and start the search) or if you are considered of *high* status" Thats just MPOV..fire away if otherwise....RIP if they aren't found and may THE heaven above strike the perp(s) if *found or no found*
@@kesefang1526 I agree if this is what you ment . Indigenous police would be a better choice to investigate the disappearce of the indigenous woman.. It could possibly eradicate any suspicion of possible racism.. I also think some of these women were killed by those closest to them.. Very sad stories these women were so vulnerable... Sometimes I wonder too.
@@ishenicole9987 Alex Yum is coordinating the Tamra Jewel Keepness case and we know it was oriental people who snatched her in that alley and they spray us with Chemtrails and why they are going crazy in Hong Kong right now due to the communist tyranny forcing them all to do nefarious things to dwindle our numbers.
I agree with the person who suspects that Rhonda Running Bird's husband might have done something bad to her. If he will beat her bad enough that she needed a colostomy bag, then why is it out of the realm of possibility to believe that he might have killed her?
PhoenixVEM THATS FALSE!!! Not one single race evolved in the Americas. Making NO ONE native to this land. Those falsely labeled so, are mongoloids from Asia who also carry Caucasian dna. The people of Mexico are 65%-95% WHITE who carry mongoloid admix.
How frustrating !! It sounds so obvious that the Boyfriend did it. Why can't there be a program like Big Sisters to help ? Where every Family in Canada sponsors one Native Female for their life ? Have it so there's help to make sure this relationship works and money is available for the Family or they're reimbursed. Each Family provides a safe place to call, to get advice, to be loved and cared for. Kids need to be shown love and care so they can love and care for themselves and their own Families. I wish there were others that felt the same.
I'm from Saskatchewan and it is so nice to hear someone talk about a case from here, especially one of this category. Thank you for spreading awareness on these types of cases!!
Im a native woman. It is scary being one. Thanks for doing this video. You'd think all these crime and serial killer youtube channels would do something on this topic but none do.
I feel a sense of shame that this isn't important to my Government. If I was missing I'd want EVERYTHING done to help me. Knowing that these beautiful Girls aren't important enough to do more makes me want to cry. For Gods' sake how could this be swept under the rug ? I wish I could do something.
As a native American myself I'm happy to see that light is being shown on indigenous people. It saddens me that proper authorities dont seem to care. Thank you for giving us a voice
Thank you for bringing awareness to this! These women deserve to be found. They deserve to have their stores told. They deserve to be remembered. But most importantly these women did not deserve, for any reason, to disappear as if they didn't matter.
I am not Indigenous, but have lived in Canada my whole life and have always taken interest in Aboriginal Peoples and culture. For someone who is currently doing a certificate program of Aboriginal studies in uni, I believe more should be done regarding missing/murdered Aboriginal women. These types of stories are very sad to hear and my prayers go out to their families
My cousin JoJo Boswell has been missing over a decade. She was released from the Steele county jail in Minnesota and never made it home back in Minneapolis. I think about her alot. Mainly when I'm driving or when I'm alone with my thoughts. Where? Where is my beautiful cousin JoJo? Where are our Native people going when they don't make it to where they were going? Somebody has to know what happens to them. I pray for my Aunt and Jojos sisters. As well as all our other missing and murdered native people.
💔💔 Your post is heartbreaking. I read about your cousin JoJo's case & it's outrageous the lack of respect, remorse, and responsibly those chimooks carry. The authorities should have to drop the person off where they picked them up from. I have a cousin missing out of Pipestone Co in MN as well. One sweet day, their mamas will be reunited and will hold her baby, if only in spirit. I believe that. 💖💖
Iam so sorry about your cousin JoJo...May God bless you and all the Native Americans and may they grow in strength and political power! May God protect all the Native American women from any and all harm ....and let the missing be found and all the perpetrators be exposed and stopped!
Missed your mysteries!!! It is snowing/raining outside and Friday night. Perfect for this!! I find it mind blowing how Native Americans are unable to receive the respect deserved from being the first Americans. This is sad that some of their homes are still called reservations when we're all living on THEIR lands. As always, love the music (volume), content and voice inflections. Thank you!
I love your channel. You have a lovely voice, and you talk about these cases with such respect and sympathy for the victims and their families. Thank you for spreading awareness about this. I hope there will be a part two
I know it's been done before but cannot be done enough...the more than 20 missing and murdered women along Canada's Highway of Tears - a 720-kilometre (450 mi) corridor of Highway 16 between Prince George and Prince Rupert, British Columbia, This is part of a Canadian national crisis. (this is of special interest to me as I grew up in this area}
Her voice is good but occasionally it will sort of "crack" and it sounds like shes at the end of her breath trying to finish her sentence, I believe it's probably caused by the recording process (record, listen, do another take if needed) because it's only ever around for less than 30 seconds
These poor people... We are meant to care for and help each other, not harm. I can only imagine how horrible it must be for these women and other people who end up in ANY situation that causes them to go missing as I’ve nearly been in these situations at the hands of someone who claimed to love me.
Normally I wouldn't watch these because they infuriate me by the disregard they seem to have towards these poor women, but everyone is right about spreading awareness so they may one day be found or justice may be done. ♡♡♡
Thank you so much for caring about these women. We need to be ashamed that not every person who goes missing gets treated the same no matter what we think the circumstances might be in their life. Everyone matters even if they live on the fringe of society such as sex workers or person who have addictions. No one due to race, skin color should be excluded from having the same protection from law enforcement. Those who didn't take these cases seriously should be held accountable. Thank you again for caring and bringing this to our attention.
I applaud you for covering cases of missing and murdered indigenous women, they are not talked about nearly enough!! It is absolutely heartbreaking how frequently this happens here in Canada. The RCMP needs to wake up and start taking these cases seriously
The treatment of our Indigenous peoples is bloody shameful. They have been de-humanized. They are proud, spiritual people with beautiful traditions and culture. How many Indigenous women must go missing before someone finally decides that enough is enough ? When is someone in "authority" going to give a damn ??😥 😥 The ancestors are crying.
watching the stars : i wish more people, especially the higher ups, would read your good comment. Indegenious women and people in general are treated like krapp by authorities. Very very sad.
As a women of aboriginal descent I find it absolutely heartbreaking that authorities have treated many of the missing/murdered aboriginals as second class citizens. Thank you for speaking about these women and spreading their stories.
It make me sick to hear how indigenous people are treated by authorities. This is why so many indigenous people who go missing are never found. I've had the honor to work for the Fond du Lac reservation, and they treated me with nothing but respect. The Anishinabe people are some of the kindest people I have ever met in my life. They shared their beliefs with me, and helped me to embrace my Blackfoot Heritage as well as my Irish and German heritage.
Addy Ratliff your white. Your not native at all. Lemme guess your great great grandparent is 1% native lmao every white person has a hilarious story of how they are native. Surprised u didn’t say your Cherokee 🤣
Thank you for this upload. In Canada Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, or MMIW, is a very current and important topic. According to the RCMP, from 1980-2012 there were 1200 MMIW. The more accurate number is 4000. Due to Racism, many of the women reported were not taken seriously. The women were thought of as “prostitute’s, drug addicts, runaways, etc and nothing was done to look for these women. As well many young girls in foster care disappear. “Oh, she just ran away”. 7% of Canada’s population is Indigenous and 1/2 of the children in care in Canada are indigenous. The indigenous population , all 7% of the 35 million in Canada, also have a 7 times higher murder rate, than the rest of the country. Many indigenous students have to leave their remote communities to attend high school. They are hundreds of kilometres away from everyone they know and are billeted with a family they don’t know which is most likely not an indigenous family, who gets money to house the children. Please watch the “Highway of tears” documentary. Or listen to the “Finding Cleo” podcast. It will provide more information on this current crisis. I hope every family gets some information.
So, so sad. I spent all my summers growing up at Cultus Lake and I never heard of this case (and really should have, I was in my 20s of the time Of this event). The horrible thing is, there never was a local bus service there (I’m not sure if there is one,even is now). It’s in fairly isolated location, even though there were many summer cottages there at the time. To get to the next town and the Greyhound station would’ve been a 15 minute drive. It breaks my heart to think she was trying to get there, and there was, in fact, no means to do so. 😥
Such a hard video to watch due to the frustrating mishandling and inhumane treatment of these cases by numerous authorities. But even though it’s difficult to get through it’s still necessary and important. These women deserve so much more than what they were given in life, and in death.
I wish you would do another one of these. Either with new cases or any updates you can find on these women. This is such a huge issue in our country and Canada. Love that you bring awareness to It!
THANK YOU sosososo much for doing this video! This has been going on for literally centuries and the world is finally starting to take notice thanks to Indigenous communities that have never stopped fighting for the truth. Videos like this help bring more awareness. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this entire video on missing indiginous women. I appreciate this channel for advocating for victims regardless of their ethnicity or socioeconomic status. You detail cases we might not otherwise hear about.
Thank you for bringing these women to the world wide awareness.While I am American, I travel to Canada frequently to visit family. I always look at faces and hope that these ladies are found and reunited with their loved ones. All of them.
Pretty obvious in Rhonda and Valerie’s cases that their significant others were responsible or at the very least know more about their disappearances than they are letting on. Very sad.
What a sad state of affairs. A life is a life. It doesn’t matter what race you are. Nor does it matter is you’re addicted to drugs or work in the sex industry. These poor women and the broken families that are left behind. RCMP should be ashamed of how many of these cases haven’t been thoroughly looked at. These girls needed to be accounted for!
This needs to be talked about by everyone. I've also been writing songs and producing films about this and i hope that more people speak out about every aspect of this. it's horrible and it needs to be dealt with so that everyone is safe. safe.
I know that somebody out there in the world knows what happened to these women. Anybody who knows and doesn't speak up to help locate the women, either dead or alive, have a special place in hell. The families of these missing women deserve answers, even if it's bad news, they deserve answers.
It's amazing and unforgivable the genocide these poor people have experienced both in Canada and America, and the blatant racism they continue to experience to this day. They have a beautiful, peaceful culture...
I found out about these beautiful women through UA-cam. I hope that all the families find their missing loved one's or what happened to them. That all the resources that are needed to assist the families come through, no one deserves what these families are going through let alone no assistance from police and government agencies. I'm from Australia, But my parents came from El Salvador. I wish and pray for all the missing women, hope the families the best for each day they have no knowledge of their loved one's whereabouts. All the best from Australia.
Always a topic that needs more attention!! We spent the month of October last year solely focusing on missing indigenous women. We covered Larissa Lonehill on your list. (We also covered Jamie Yazzie who was just found, unfortunately, she was deceased and her case remains open). Keep spreading awareness- this is a big problem in the U.S.!
Ty for increasing awareness about this problem and trying to find out what happened to those women. Justice has not been blind or unbiased In this country. Let's take her blindfold off and get down to the truth. Justice for all!
Yes yes Yes! This has gone on long enough and uncaught killers are walking around is chilling, why don't officers not acknowledge this?!! Some "justice system
Thank you for bringing some awareness to this. I live in Edmonton and it is so sad how many are missing. It is only now getting a little attention even though it is not a new problem by any means. My heart breaks for these women and all those that have been forgotten. We will not let anyone forget again or anymore!
So valarie goes missing without her belongings and what does the bf do.....packs up and leaves the next day at noon. Massive red flags that he didnt care to wait to make sure she made it back safe considering he had her phone, wallet, keys and clothes.
i live right around where leona went missing (as in, a few blocks away) and you only see the occasional missing person poster. its hearbreaking, i wish la grande police cared more about people of colour, specifically native women.
I think if the police/RCMP put an OUNCE of effort into these cases, they could solve them. Its a disgrace that aboriginal women in Canada are seen as expendable.
All of these women were so beautiful and had so much going for them, I pray that they get the justice they very much deserve. The media needs to stop overlooking native women’s cases!!!!!
You're absolutely right.Lets do something about this,speak about this relentlessly, and remember that the Squeaky wheels get the grease.Blessings from Canada👍
Do happen to live in bc/Washington state? I just feel like a lot of your story are from around there. It’s interesting getting so hear local stories even if they’re sad.
Lovely and diligent work HCF, as always.Your empathy is especially pronounced in this video,these women and their cases need it coupled with much more exposure.You bear up to the responsibility that these solemn matters dictate. Be well please.
Thank you for bringing to light the topic of missing Native American women. As always your production is wonderful. Please do more on this topic, there are literally 100's of missing Native American women.
I’m from South Dakota where one of these women went missing and the cops aren’t very friendly towards natives not trying to start anything but it’s seriously sad
Desiree Oldwoman obviously went missing after Highland Park Jane Doe was found, but my gosh do they remind me of each other. I hope they both get their dignity back soon. These are all tragic, I hope these amazing women all get justice.
The police said 48 hours had to pass before they do anything? Is this because the first 48 hours are the most important in finding people? 🤔 "Let's give the bad guys a 2 day head start"
The amount of indigenous persons missing is astounding.
The RCMP do not take these disappearances seriously and regularly screw up the investigations.
I'll agree with you on your point though, i strongly suggest them indigenous police to look into these cases...RCMP sorta or dare i say "look out onto themselves(not unless you're highly regarded for them to kick their horse and start the search) or if you are considered of *high* status"
Thats just MPOV..fire away if otherwise....RIP if they aren't found and may THE heaven above strike the perp(s) if *found or no found*

It is good to remember these women and to share their stories.
Yes I'm sad today after watching so many videos on my native sisters😢
Completely agree!! It seems most have forgotten about them, unless they knew them personally.
Thank you for bringing awareness to this epidemic!! Its out of control
I agree with the person who suspects that Rhonda Running Bird's husband might have done something bad to her. If he will beat her bad enough that she needed a colostomy bag, then why is it out of the realm of possibility to believe that he might have killed her?
Statistically, yes... domestic violence often precedes murder.
Especially bc he was made aware just before the trip that Rhonda was going to leave the relationship and try to get legal help.
Dr Seuss said it best "A persons a person no matter how small" a missing family member is not something small. My heart goes out to those suffering.
Canada really has issues with their relations towards indigenous people and this video makes that very clear
You think Canada's bad? Have you SEEN the US? Half the "Mexicans" they keep calling "illegals" are actually indigenous people FROM the US... 😭😭😭
I would say the country as a whole is racist against indigenous people.
I am Canadian, and this is something I am embarrassed about. I wish our government took native issues more seriously.
PhoenixVEM THATS FALSE!!! Not one single race evolved in the Americas. Making NO ONE native to this land. Those falsely labeled so, are mongoloids from Asia who also carry Caucasian dna. The people of Mexico are 65%-95% WHITE who carry mongoloid admix.
Dizzy “racist”--> communist language, the “N word” for whites
The disrespect, lack of compassion, and care for indigenous people everywhere is appalling
Thank you for humanizing these women and telling about what kind of people they were, and not just as another sad statistic. I love your stuff!
Wonderful to see you raise awareness on the ongoing problem of Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women #MMIW
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada here.
I feel like indigenous women are almost invisible when it comes to being missing. It breaks my heart. Thanks for bringing awareness to this issue.
We are very visible but when we go missing Ppl have to care for it to matter
What are the odds that a used colostomy bag was found in the woods and it not belong to the victim, who used a colostomy bag?!. Seems strange!
How frustrating !! It sounds so obvious that the Boyfriend did it. Why can't there be a program like Big Sisters to help ? Where every Family in Canada sponsors one Native Female for their life ? Have it so there's help to make sure this relationship works and money is available for the Family or they're reimbursed.

sounds like to many husbands and boyfriends were the "last" ones to see these women. Just saying
If it was a male victim, he too could have had many women wives and girlfriends that had seen him for the "last time." Just saying
@@violetsprings470 look at the statistics and you’ll see why it’s scarier for a man to be the last person to see a woman :)

Pretty obvious in Rhonda and Valerie’s cases that their significant others were responsible or at the very least know more about their disappearances than they are letting on. Very sad.
So glad you posted another video! These stories are so sad but need to be told. Thank you!
Thank you for this. It's very sad.
What a sad state of affairs. A life is a life. It doesn’t matter what race you are. Nor does it matter is you’re addicted to drugs or work in the sex industry. These poor women and the broken families that are left behind. RCMP should be ashamed of how many of these cases haven’t been thoroughly looked at. These girls needed to be accounted for!
That Valerie was probably killed by her bf he took her camping way up in the bush n he buried her there so he would have an alibi.
This needs to be talked about by everyone. I've also been writing songs and producing films about this and i hope that more people speak out about every aspect of this. it's horrible and it needs to be dealt with so that everyone is safe. safe.
Most beautiful person nev er forget and let's do something positive for change and draw attention to this.Hugs from Canada
Let's make noise and demand for someone in politics to do something! Please.Stay safe out there
I know that somebody out there in the world knows what happened to these women. Anybody who knows and doesn't speak up to help locate the women, either dead or alive, have a special place in hell. The families of these missing women deserve answers, even if it's bad news, they deserve answers.
Thank you for this upload. ..keep up the good work👏👏
It's amazing and unforgivable the genocide these poor people have experienced both in Canada and America, and the blatant racism they continue to experience to this day. They have a beautiful, peaceful culture...
Thank you for bringing Valerie Sifsof name to life. My mom knows her 💙 she still talks about her to this day.
Please make more videos of Indigenous Missing Women. This is the 2nd time I've watched this one. I want to know more about this topic.
I found out about these beautiful women through UA-cam. I hope that all the families find their missing loved one's or what happened to them. That all the resources that are needed to assist the families come through, no one deserves what these families are going through let alone no assistance from police and government agencies. I'm from Australia, But my parents came from El Salvador. I wish and pray for all the missing women, hope the families the best for each day they have no knowledge of their loved one's whereabouts. All the best from Australia.
Always a topic that needs more attention!! We spent the month of October last year solely focusing on missing indigenous women. We covered Larissa Lonehill on your list. (We also covered Jamie Yazzie who was just found, unfortunately, she was deceased and her case remains open). Keep spreading awareness- this is a big problem in the U.S.!
Ty for increasing awareness about this problem and trying to find out what happened to those women.
Justice has not been blind or unbiased In this country. Let's take her blindfold off and get down to the truth. Justice for all!
Yes yes Yes! This has gone on long enough and uncaught killers are walking around is chilling, why don't officers not acknowledge this?!! Some "justice system
Thank you for bringing some awareness to this. I live in Edmonton and it is so sad how many are missing. It is only now getting a little attention even though it is not a new problem by any means. My heart breaks for these women and all those that have been forgotten. We will not let anyone forget again or anymore!
Let's make LOTS of noise about this and vote someone in who cares! Hugs from Canada
So valarie goes missing without her belongings and what does the bf do.....packs up and leaves the next day at noon. Massive red flags that he didnt care to wait to make sure she made it back safe considering he had her phone, wallet, keys and clothes.
i live right around where leona went missing (as in, a few blocks away) and you only see the occasional missing person poster. its hearbreaking, i wish la grande police cared more about people of colour, specifically native women.
Thank you for shedding light on this atrocity I am Canadian and im glad the Harper Gov't is gone... sadly not much is being done. ❤️🖤💛♡
I think if the police/RCMP put an OUNCE of effort into these cases, they could solve them. Its a disgrace that aboriginal women in Canada are seen as expendable.
All of these women were so beautiful and had so much going for them, I pray that they get the justice they very much deserve. The media needs to stop overlooking native women’s cases!!!!!
You're absolutely right.Lets do something about this,speak about this relentlessly, and remember that the Squeaky wheels get the grease.Blessings from Canada👍
Do happen to live in bc/Washington state? I just feel like a lot of your story are from around there. It’s interesting getting so hear local stories even if they’re sad.
I have been listening to some of your back videos. They are so good. Could you please do an update to this video?
Lovely and diligent work HCF, as always.Your empathy is especially pronounced in this video,these women and their cases need it coupled with much more exposure.You bear up to the responsibility that these solemn matters dictate. Be well please.
Thank you for bringing to light the topic of missing Native American women. As always your production is wonderful. Please do more on this topic, there are literally 100's of missing Native American women.
I’m from South Dakota where one of these women went missing and the cops aren’t very friendly towards natives not trying to start anything but it’s seriously sad
Sterlyng Lewandowski your very right! Natives are already a forgotten race and no one protects or cares when we are in danger
Desiree Oldwoman obviously went missing after Highland Park Jane Doe was found, but my gosh do they remind me of each other. I hope they both get their dignity back soon.
These are all tragic, I hope these amazing women all get justice.
Yes,let's continue to draw attention to this.Blessing on you and be safe out there
The police said 48 hours had to pass before they do anything?
Is this because the first 48 hours are the most important in finding people? 🤔
"Let's give the bad guys a 2 day head start"
This is pt 1 right because there are so many more....
Yes please do more.
Congratulations on reaching 10k it was quick
thank you! yes, i was shocked by how quick it was. i am very grateful though!
