, Professor of Practice, Department of Family Medicine

鈥�There is a straight line between the discovery of 215 children鈥檚 bodies at the site of a former Indian residential school, and the treatment of Joyce Echaquan: both are signs of the persistence of systemic racism. Canadians and Quebecers need to confront our past with honesty before we can really make a better future where Indigenous peoples are treated fairly.鈥�

Wanda Gabriel, Assistant Professor, School of Social Work

鈥�The damage of residential school keeps on revealing just how cruel and inhumane the treatment of our children was and continues to be. Canada's child welfare continues to harm our little ones and our children are still being forced into a world and culture that is not ours. Since 1996, starting with the Report of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples, several commissions have uncovered the damage and destruction done to Indigenous peoples. Out these reports have come close to 800 calls to action for individuals and the state 鈥� how many have been completed? When will more actions occur to stop genocide and further destruction?鈥�
