An Indigenous woman marching from Saskatoon to Ottawa passed by Wawa this weekend.
Richelle Dubois explains that her "March On Ottawa" is just the latest effort to seek justice in her 14-year-old son's death.
Dubois says the March itself started on the eight year memorial for her son in May, with a walk from Regina to Saskatoon.
Dubois believes her son's death was murder, noting there was evidence of a struggle and that the coroner refused to document injuries to his face and elbows.
In addition to seeking justice in this case, Dubois is seeking to bring awareness about issues in the health care system - hoping for more accountability under the philosophy that "intentional neglect is murder" - and advocating for missing, murdered, and neglected Indigenous men, boys, and two-spirited people, in addition to missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.
Though she's not seeking financial donations, Dubois encourages people to "donate kilometres" so she can get to Ottawa faster, aiming to be there when Parliament opens next month - the campaign's on Facebook as "March on Ottawa: A Family's March for Justice".
