Residential School Apology

The Residential School Apology is an official statement expressing regret and remorse for the harmful policies and practices of residential schools, which in the past forcibly removed Indigenous children from their families to erase their culture, language, and identity. This apology acknowledges the suffering inflicted by these institutions and aims to foster reconciliation, healing, and recognition of the injustices faced by Indigenous communities. It signifies a commitment to acknowledge past wrongs and work toward respectful relationships, cultural preservation, and ongoing efforts for justice and reconciliation.
