Indigenous women make up almost half the female prison population, ombudsman says
Indigenous women now account for almost half of the female inmate population in federally run prisons, says a new report from Canada's correctional investigator.
Indigenous people make up about 32 per cent of the federal prison population, despite accounting for less than five per cent of the total population. Indigenous women, meanwhile, account for 48 per cent of the population in women's prisons.
Federal corrections investigator Ivan Zinger called the situation "appalling and shameful."
"It's just trending always, year after year, in the wrong direction. And this is irregardless of what various governments have done," he said.
The Indigenous inmate population has increased roughly 18 per cent over the past decade, while the number of non-Indigenous inmates has dropped by 28 per cent in the same period, says Zinger's report.
