It is a broken society that is suspicious of the poor and the immigrant possibly exploiting the system to have more than they need all while the rich and powerful are encouraged to exploit and hoard as much as they like. It is a broken Christianity that endorses such a society.

Today in Sipekne’katik; Walk in solidarity for Destiny, Systemic racism within our Healthcare system, demand justice. Starting at 2pm at the band office, t-shirts to be handed out for FREE. Get your laminate posters. join the walk FROM the band office, through the ballfield, and into the Arbour.
Justice for Destiny poster. 
A beautiful 22 yr old Mi’kmaq woman is on the poster. Destiny was a 22-year young Indigenous Woman
Destiny sought medical treatment in 2023. Her pleas for medical help were DENIED by several Nova Scotia Health doctors, resulting in her preventable death
Destiny was delayed life saving treatment for 8.5 hours, as she lay dying, alone because her family was REFUSED access to her
Hospital staff labelled her a "drug addict" although no drugs were in her system. SYSTAMTIC RACISM played a crucial role in her death
Destiny's family diligently advocated for Nova Scotia Health to help her several times. Each desperate plea was IGNORED
Remembering Destiny and honoring her life is why we are marching today
We refuse to let her become "just another statistic" with no accountability. Our goal now is to change the way Lnu people are treated, promoting self advocacy, ensuring hospital guidelines and policies are not Just to protect staff, and most importantly spreading awareness of Cryptococcal fungal meningitis
Destiny's death was 100% preventable
Indigenous females are 2.5 times & Indigenous males are twice as likely to die from AVOIDABLE CAUSES, then non-Indigenous people.
I in 5 Indigenous People face discriminatory or racist behaviour from someone in the health care system.
