A gust of wind drifts through the prairie grass and into the city of Edmonton. A peaceful setting until you learn the history of the area.

The rural city limits have long been an informal resting ground in Alberta’s capital city, where dozens of missing women’s remains have been located, many of whom worked in the sex industry. Thirty-seven women have been found in rural areas outside of the city.

The rural outskirts of the city have been referred to as the “killing fields” by sex workers and advocates alike for decades.
