Time to dismantle Indigenous Affairs, ban feds from Indigenous education and child welfare, prosecute church leaders
By Rose LeMay July 26, 2021
Workers
at some of the residential schools are still alive and walking amongst
us and they must be prosecuted. Church leaders need to be prosecuted.
The Catholic Church needs to pay its reparations. The federal government
needs to dismantle the Department of Indian Affairs, and forthwith be
banned from Indigenous education and child welfare.

Residential School, Fort Providence, N.W.T., circa 1920. A whole line of
political and civil service leaders through history didn’t want you to
know the truth—truly a Canadian pact of forgetting. Those who continue
to spew some propaganda to uphold 'the good intent' of residential
schools need to be held accountable, writes Rose LeMay. Photograph courtesy of the Library and Archives Canada
