Nearly 75% felt disrespected or mocked, exposing systemic failures. Indigenous midwives confirm this reflects long-standing inequities tied to historical lack of self-determination. Crucially, those cared for by Indigenous midwives experienced far less mistreatment, pointing to the power of culturally led care. In BC, efforts are underway to grow the Indigenous midwifery workforce to 200 over 20 years, building community-centered birthing centers to ensure equitable, respectful care for all.
