Share your Experience

How can I participate?

  • Sharing your experience
    • If you want to share your experiences with the Inquiry, there will be an opportunity to sign up for private meetings and public community meetings in the fall. Details to follow, please check back soon.
    • You can submit art, music or songs, audio or video recordings, notes, letters or emails. Details to follow, please check back soon.
  • Death Investigations
    • If you want the Inquiry to investigate the death of a loved one, you will need to apply. The application form is available here. Applications must be submitted by October 31, 2022. If your application is approved, your costs for participating will be paid by the Inquiry, including the cost of a lawyer to represent you in your particular case.
  • Party Status
    • For organizations (or individuals) seeking Party status or standing in the Inquiry (i.e. have an interest which may be adversely affected by the findings of the Inquiry; their participation would further the conduct of the Inquiry and contribute to the openness and fairness of the Inquiry), applications will open by the end of July. The Province and the Innu Representative Organizations (Innu Nation, SIFM and MIFN) have full party status. However, we expect that other organizations may have more limited standing to address issues of particular interest to them.
