#residentialschools are a deep, ugly scar in #canadian history and must never be forgotten.
It was genocide, pure and simple.

My ex's grandmother attended Birtle. She was so brutalized that she never spoke of it.

My #Metis family "passed for white" so were brutalized at day school instead, forbidden to speak their language and practice their culture.

We cannot have reconciliation without justice.
