I recently wrote for Law360 Canada on some of the ongoing challenges Indigenous families continue to face within the child welfare and family law system in Nunavut.

These are important conversations surrounding cultural continuity, community-based support systems, and more equitable approaches within the legal system.

My recent expert analysis published in Law360 Canada explores the “best interests test” and the role of cultural continuity in Indigenous child welfare matters.

These are important discussions that continue to shape how we think about fairness, equity, and the protection of children, families, and communities within the legal system.

Grateful to contribute to this ongoing conversation.
