She had been missing for eight days. On the day she was last seen
alive, Tina encountered multiple people, including law enforcement
officers, doctors, and her assigned worker from Child and Family
Services, who could have put an end to the vicious cycle of trauma
pervading Tina's life... but they didn't. Tina could have been
saved that day, but the system failed her. The system failed her
before she ever even walked this earth. One man was arrested in
connection with Tina's death, but today, no one has been charged
with the murder of this young girl.

The death of Tina Fontaine, and the failures of the system that was
supposed to protect her and children like her, sparked an
outpouring of grief, anger, and calls to action across Canada. The
public demanded that the Canadian government launch an inquiry into
the epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and
Girls.
