Technically they were compensated a decade ago.



It should be settled.



But I guess they are gonna revisit this thing every time some1 discovers something from that era.

Who was compensated?



How come you know more about this me and you don't even live in this country?

It was in the Finnish news article.



Some billions of canadian dollars were given to the victims in 2008.



With apologies.





The real number is around 4000 dead.

There has been so many cash given to Indian leaders that I can't remember them all.

There were 139 residential schools in Canada.



 Catholic Church, was the majority operator



I'm sure the breakdown of all operators will come out soon

I saw on the news that Alberta had twenty five residential schools....sixteen were run by the Catholic Church and the remainder were operated by the Anglican and United churches.

it will be interesting to see if the United Church puts their money where their woke mouth is.

True enough.



When this all shakes out it will be interesting to see the ration of burial problems .... and murders which will be harder to prove

It will for sure. It'll be quite a while though.

I agree, but I understand the anger at the Catholic Church.

Lower Kootenay Band reposts 182 unmarked graves found on former site of St. Eugene's Mission school near Cranbrook



Of course there will be many more. Finally the churches will be found out for what they did

[cc]

North of Cranbrook, beside the St. Mary River, with the soaring Rocky Mountains in the background, lies a little cemetery. Simple wooden crosses with peeling white paint, some fallen over, look lost amongst the tall untended grass and weeds. It's as though this graveyard and those buried here have been abandoned, forgotten.

St. Eugene Resort and its Sad History



The St. Eugene Mission is the only residential school in Canada to be converted to a fashionable resort.



https://roadstories.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/exterior-of-St.-Eugene-Mission-Red-Brick-Schoolhouse.jpg">



About 200 metres away, across an immaculately mown green fairway, sits an elegant three-story red-brick building with ivy on the walls and a simple cross high on top: the St. Eugene Golf Resort & Casino. One couldn't imagine a greater contrast. The resort is attractive and distinctly upscale with an 18-hole championship golf course, a casino, a hotel with 125 rooms, meeting spaces, fine dining and well-stocked bars. The resort, which also includes a spa and first-class entertainment, is a sought-after destination for weddings and other high-end functions.
