Canada’s dark behind the headlines history of the Indian Residential School system is only beginning to surface within the past decade. Testimonies from former students whose experiences are so dark and bleak, that some cannot wrap their head around or believe that such an inhumane government funded, Church run school could ever exist. What the public forgets is they were only children when they attended.
