Residential schools were never schools. Nor are they part of this country’s colonial history. The traumas and settler institutions continue to impact our Indigenous cousins today. My heart aches for the children, culture, and community lost. #cowessess cbc.ca/news/canada/sa…
This genocide is inextricably linked to the life I enjoy as a settler on Treaty 4 Territory and that is one of the truths that I grapple with as an uninvited guest on this land. Educating myself and understanding these truths is part of my journey towards #TruthAndReconciliation
My thoughts are with @cadmusd, the #CowessessFirstNation community, and Indigenous people across Turtle Island who have lived these truths that we as settlers are only now beginning to acknowledge. I stand in solidarity and am committed to meaningful action beyond my words today.
