Sexual abuse is Nunavut’s core problem

In response to Pauline Alainga’s letter, I would like to congratulate her for speaking up in her letter to the editor about sexual abuse (Oct. 11).

Speaking from experience, it needs to be addressed more and more. It will forever be the core problem of Nunavut unless more people share and recognize their own past experiences, such as Pauline’s.

If Nunavut is to live up to its expectations, then we all need to step up, stand up, and speak out.

Ask for help. Life is too precious.
