Afaik that road leads away from a First Nation's spot so isn't it just First Nations people being mad at the government for not helping them out more? Would make sense to me idk.

Given that all the police really have to do is set up a sting where they have a fake hitchhiker girl cop trying to hitchhike down the road it seems like a valid complaint.

There was a documentary on this in the serial killer thread last month. I'd never heard about the highway of tears, so my first reaction was basically just stop hitchhiking.Then I saw the doc and you're right, it is mostly first nation women who are going missing. The highway is long one and these girls are from communities without access to cars or public transportation, someone else said hitchhike or starve and that is the case. I thought about why aren't they planting a fake hitchhiker girl too, then I realised they might well be, but they sure as gently caress wouldn't tell anyone, would they? Or they could go the other way, just say they planted a few fakes in order to scare off futher attacks? I dunno. Otherwise drones could be pretty useful I guess. The doc estimated the total victim count as being near 100, and then the fk the police crowd seem pretty justified as thats pretty horrendous. Some scary poo poo
