Toronto illustrator sends portraits of missing, murdered aboriginal women to Prime Minister Stephen Harper | Toronto Star

Toronto illustrator, Evan Munday, has been drawing portraits of Canada's missing or murdered aboriginal women and plans to send a new one to Prime Minister Stephen Harper every day to bring more attention to the issue. His first portrait posted to Twitter is missing woman Elaine Frieda Alook who was 35 when she disappeared on May 11 outside Fort McMurray, Alberta.





Munday said the “last straw” for him was when Harper said, in his year-end CBC interview with Peter Mansbridge, that a national inquiry into missing and murdered aboriginal women “isn’t really high on our radar.”
