inquiry Chief Commissioner Judge James Igloliorte and inquiry commissioners Anastasia Qupee and Mike Devine attend the inquiry launch at Confederation Building in April 2022. - SaltWire file photoST. JOHN'S, N.L. — The Innu of Labrador have waited six years for a promised inquiry to take place into their experiences with the province’s child-protection services.
During the launch of a provincewide suicide prevention initiative in 2021, former Sheshatshiu band chief Anastasia Qupee explained how her people have more recently tried to recapture their traditional way of life by getting children out of the classroom and out on the land as part of their education.
Qupee is one of three commissioners for the inquiry, along with retired social work professor Mike Devine and chief commissioner Judge James Igloliorte.While the Innu experience with the child-protection system follows a long and tragic arc, perhaps the most visceral moment came in the early 1990s when images of teenagers in Davis Inlet sniffing gasoline were broadcast around the world.
In 2020, former Innu deputy grand chief Simeon Tshakapesh expressed his long-standing frustrations after the death of an Innu boy, Wally Rich, at a group home in Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
