Recommendation 169:
Many people continue to look for information and the final resting place of their lost loved one. The federal government, in partnership with Inuit, has established the Nanilavut project. We recognize the significance of the project as an important step in healing and Inuit self-determination in the healing and reconciliation process. We call upon the federal government to support the work of the Nanilavut project on a long-term basis, with sustained funding so that it can continue to serve Inuit families as they look for answers to the questions of what happened to their loved ones. We further insist that it must provide for the option of repatriation of the remains of lost loved ones once they are located.

Improved awareness and understanding across the public service as it relates to the experience of Indigenous youth and the 2SLGBTQQIA community is a significant area of opportunity for growth. Increased engagement with the Indigenous 2SLGBTQQIA community and focused resources for public servants to increase their knowledge and capacity are important steps.
