Lol that's like when liberals were going ape shit about the "missing indigenous women" and demanding an investigation. Report came out after Trudeau was elected and offered no answer, just a big leftist word salad. Why? Because the real answer to why they disappeared is that most people on these reserves are absolute drunk savages and crime is rampant. In other words, they got offed by other natives. An inconvenient truth but one that's really fucking obvious to anyone that spent a fraction of a second in these shit holes.
That’s certainly true for some of the cases, but I don’t think “human trafficking” should be entirely ruled out. The infamous pig farmer and his connections to police, judges, lawyers, etc indicate an almost epstain-like situation:
There's also the "Highway of Tears", which is really not a place anyone should be hitch-hiking, because it's remote, and wild.
I've done a shit-ton of hitch-hiking, and I've driven that road. I wouldn't dream of hitching it unless I was in total desperation, and it's really not a good idea to sleep outside in a tent in the Canadian wilds, period. If you do (and I've done), the risk is totally on you.
And Greyhound closing really fucked a lot of remote places.
Rideshare might be a thing up there now though. I hope so. I guess one could probably make a bit of money on the side to be a long-distance taxi, even if you had to deadhead back.
The report also either concluded that Indigenous women either went missing or had their cases solved at the same rate as the general pop, can't remember which.

Yep.

TBF, the Highway of Tears is a giant geographic area with low pop and no infrastructure.
Given Greyhound Canada’s closure, I'm not sure there even exists alternative means of travel if you don't own a car.
A lot of Canada is like that.
