The records on our site emerge from the cultural and physical genocide that the Canadian government and churches conducted through the Indian Residential School System, including the ongoing impacts.

Bearing witness to these records may become overwhelming. If you are a Survivor or an Intergenerational Survivor and would like support, you can call the 24-hour National Indian Residential School Crisis Line at:

Description
"When Cole's teacher catches him drawing rather than listening in class, he gives Cole a special assignment: an oral presentation on an important Aboriginal figure. Cole will do almost anything to avoid speaking in public - even feigning illness. But when he hears the story of the remarkable woman known as Thanadelthur - peacemaker between the Cree and the Dene and the interpreter for the governmer of Fort York - he is so inspired by her bravery, he overcomes his own fears"--back cover.
