My thanks to friend and parishioner David Gordon for making me aware of this series of pieces on the origin and background of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Committee.

Part One:

With the help of the Mounties, the priests piled the children into boats and floated away | Canada’s National Observer: News & Analysis

Part Two:

‘I was beaten severely all over my body with a strap… The only reason he quit was that he was too exhausted to continue’ | Canada’s National Observer: News & Analysis

Not for the faint of heart, but important reading for us all as citizens and as disciples.
