------------------------------------------------ "Eagle Strong Voice and IHRTGC Elders, along with dozens of Canadian Chiefs, presented the: "Mass Graves List" to the United Nations, on "April 19th 2008" and we had asked United Nations agencies to protect and monitor the mass graves, as part of a genuine inquiry and judicial prosecution of those responsible, for this Canadian Genocide. Indigenous children in the United States and Canada were "forcibly taken" from their families and relocated, to residential schools. The stated goal of this government program was to: "kill the Indian, to save the man." Half of the children did not survive the experience, and those who did, later died. They were either murdered, raped, sacrificed or, burned alive and those who ran away and survived, were left permanently scarred. The resulting alcoholism, suicide and the transmission of trauma to their own children has led to a social disintegration, with results, that can only be described as genocidal." - Eagle Strong Voice (Kevin Annett) and IHRTGC Elders (International Human Rights Tribunal into Genocide in Canada). ------------------------------------------------- I claim no ownership of any of the clips, video and music expressed in this video...and employ my borrowing of them with much respect and thanks.

Canada's Dark Secret | Featured Documentary In 1996, the last residential school in Canada was closed down, bringing to light horrifying stories about the methods used to sever indigenous children from the influence of their families and to assimilate them into the dominant "Canadian" culture. Over more than a century, tens of thousands of families were torn apart as children were kidnapped or forcibly removed from their homes Residential schools were part of an extensive education system set up by the Canadian government and administered by churches with the objective of indoctrinating Aboriginal children into the Euro-Canadian and Christian way of life. Bud Whiteye, a survivor of the Mohawk Institute Residential School, was "picked up" and taken to the school along with four other children as they walked along a public road to visit his grandmother. I'm ashamed to say I'm Canadian because of what my government has done. Ron Short, former RCMP officer "They didn't put us in a room and indoctrinate us all day long or anything like that," he explains. "It was in the routine of the place. "You didn't speak anything but English. You went to the white man's school. You went to the white man's church. You wore white mens' clothes. All those were built in. It wasn't a classroom-type lecture. It was ingrained in the system." In 2008, the Canadian government launched the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), which finally enabled survivors to give their testimonies on life in the residential schools. Abuse - mental, physical and sexual - was rife and, although research and statistics vary, it is estimated that 6,000 children died in these schools. Some evidence puts the casualties at three times that number. After its formation, the TRC travelled around Canada for six years, gathering testimony from thousands who bore witness to the tragedies of the residential schools. Numerous "Aboriginal healing" programmes were put in place to help those affected to move on with their lives. - Subscribe to our channel: http://aje.io/AJSubscribe - Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish - Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera - Check our website: http://www.aljazeera.com/ #AlJazeeraEnglish #ChildLabour #CanadaIndengiousPeople
