A woman displays the image of Loretta Saunders beside the Centennial Flame ahead of a demonstration on Parliament Hill in Ottawa on March 5, 2014. Saunders had been a student in Nova Scotia studying criminology. She was killed by her roommates in the previous month. Her death helped bring about an inquiry into why a disproportionate number of native women went missing and were murdered in Canada. The inquiry report was released on June 3.
