We extend our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Morgan Harris and all those affected by this heartbreaking tragedy. The confirmation of a second set of human remains at Prairie Green Landfill is a painful reminder of the ongoing crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People. As we mourn, we also stand in solidarity with the families, advocates, and communities calling for justice and meaningful action.

Our hearts are with you. 🧡
