An anti-racism group is calling for an inquiry into the handling of the case of an aboriginal woman who pushed a young Calgary man into the path of an oncoming C-Train during a dispute in a $10 drug deal. The Saskatchewan Coalition Against Racism says the case made against Natalie Pasqua, pictured, was biased. Pasqua pleaded guilty last month to manslaughter in the death of Gage Prevost, 17, who died in the 2007 incident, and a sentencing hearing was expected yesterday. The woman had won an appeal of her second-degree murder conviction in the case.
