Cops issued an Amber alert for a missing Aboriginal girl.

I got a push notification on my phone two hours ago. When the description was Aboriginal I (sadly) almost shit my pants. They NEVER issue Amber alerts for Aboriginals and there are something like 700 unsolved murders of Aboriginal girls in this country.

Usually when Aboriginal girls go missing you'll only see a poster on a telephone pole or in a small mom and pop business, put there by the kid's own parents.

Yet we cared more about those Shafia shitbags who weren't even born in Canada. Lots of cop resources were dedicated to that, and media attention. Waste of time/money.

Anyways, I just got a push notification she was found. A happy ending, and maybe a good sign.

You're thinking of Aqsa Parvez. The Shafias were Afghan.

i assumed they were pakistanis for some reason. Was it a honor killing, the Shafia family?

Yes it was. It's the one where they drove the car in the Rideau Canal.

And you didnt like Harper.

I don't. For all I know this could be Harper going into CYA mode for Attawapiskat.

Although Harper has nothing to do with Amber alerts, that's the local police.
