I thoroughly enjoyed reading this page. The headings were clear, the topic was concise, and there was a good combination of background information, explanation of the topic, and case studies. Forced sterilization is a significant topic that is not discussed enough in Canadian history, so I am glad you chose it for your Wikipedia page.

The article covers a significant problem of compulsory sterilization, practiced in certain provinces of Canada. This problem is quite disturbing, as it highlights social and ethnical inequality and constant tension within the Canadian community. The recent stories of the women forced to undergo sterilization are outraging indeed, as they prove not only that women are still exposed to extreme forms of violence but also that there is continued discrimination against the most vulnerable minorities. The author of this article did an excellent job in bringing to light these important issues and completed the task of putting the material in the most comprehensible and straightforward way.

This wiki page was really well done! I found it really informative and insightful. I enjoyed how you used the example of Leilani Muir and her backstory to further our understanding of the problem. I think one thing you might be able to add would be a bit more detail of how Indigenous communities are affected in terms of forced sterilization. You mentioned how a large percentage of Indigenous people are incarcerated, it would be interesting to know how these two things correlate in the further discrimination of Indigenous people through Canada. I thought this topic was very fascinating to choose since this is one thing that Canada does a very good job of glossing over and ignoring the history of it. Good job!
