Re: Native Residential School Compenstion - Canada

Some background on the Residential Schools:

All I can say is that it's about time, and that I hope this help to further heal the wounds and distrust between the Government and the First Nations.
Is the government actually offering an apology or are they just going to give them money (sorry I couldn't read the article. The link won't open properly)?

The government is notorious for saying "here's some money for your troubles" but they won't actually admit that they did anything wrong.
