For over 100 years, the Canadian government in cooperation with the churches has taken away indigenous children from their families never to return them. They assimilated them, changed their religion and did much more. My guest Nergis Canefe explained how this was done and after all the pain and loss for the indigenous communities, there can be reconciliation between the aboriginals and Canadians of all sorts including those who arrived in the country recently. We discussed whether the adoption of the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation and similar measures can be examples and how society can play its part in healing.
