    Indigenous women, two-spirit, transgender, and gender-diverse people in Canada experience disproportionate HIV and sexually transmitted and blood-borne infection (STBBI) inequities shaped by colonial violence and systemic racism.

The trend over these 28 years is for subemployment to range from 20 to 30 percent of the labor suppl…
