MONTREAL The recent acknowledgment by Quebec s order of nurses that systemic racism exists in the health-care system shows human values at their greatest, Assembly of First Nations Quebec-Labrador Chief Ghislain Picard said Thursday. The admission, Picard added, reflects a desire within that organization to fight against racism and to respect Indigenous cultures. These are people who are on the front lines, so such comments coming from them, I don t see how we can contradict this, he said in an interview. Earlier this week, the professional order, called Ordre des infirmières et infirmiers du Québec, issued a statement recognizing systemic racism particularly toward Inuit and First Nations people. The order s comments were in response to the death last September of Joyce Echaquan, an Atikamekw mother who filmed herself at a Quebec hospital while staff hurled racist insults at her as she lay dying.
