Montreal, April 24th to the 27th, 2013
It was a privilege to hear these painful stories experienced by Aboriginals in residential schools.
These people opened themselves to us with great trust wanting to move forward towards greater reconciliation and understanding between our two nations.
Everything unfolded with enormous respect for their pain, in an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion as if we were walking on our tiptoes on holy ground. It was with this mindset that I took part in this Commission.
