Canada is a nation known around the World for it's multi cultural greatness. And yet, uncovered truths show that we've had a government who intentionally served to force children of Indigenous communities to attend "residential schools" for the purpose of cultural genocide.

Children were collected from their communities- some from their own front yard while outside playing with friends, as young as 6years old, without parental consent. Once in the school system, the children were neglected and made to face physical/mental/sexual abuse, even wrongful death. 

We thank Bruce Allan, a residential school survivor, for joining us today on the Rise Today Inspirational Podcast - to open up the conversation, to continue to uncover secrets, to propel truth and awareness, and to share how we can all contribute to help this community heal from all that it has endured.
