children him. i myself wished to reaffirm this with shame and our ambiguously, i humbly beg forgiveness for the evil committed by so many christians against the indigenous peoples. well, a canadian truth and reconciliation commission called the abuse. a catholic church runs schools, a, a cultural genocide from the late 18 hundreds to the 19 ninety's. canada's government sent around a 150000 at 1st nations messes and new it children to 139 residential schools. they were cut off from their families, language and culture, and many of them were physically and sexually abused by the head, mos monsters and teachers at schools. the commission found at least $3200.00 children, died while attending residential school. he commissions chair estimated some 6000 children, never made at home. cool to reconciliation were renewed in may 2021. and the fust of more than $1300.00 unmarked graves were discovered at sights of former schools.

a new constitution which opponents se would return the countries are one man rule. present case i eat, says is changes and necessary to rain in a corrupt political elite is as chinese eons to back the proposal, even though he supposed to remain neutral. the vote comes exactly a year after said sack the government and suspended parliament. he's been ruling by presidential decree ever since polling stations will close in a couple of hours with results expected early on tuesday. those opposed to the changes said that they would boycott vote, and turn out has actually been low at around 21 percent. this museum, i mean, i'm not going to vote because we've voted a lot of times without the results we were expecting. it's the results which forced us to not vote on not give any importance to it because the reality will remain unchanged. and i do not imagine there will be a change in the future. but there are others who hope the referendum will help improve the situation in the country. and her her love,

the heading. i have waited for this opportunity to vote for a long time. i hope that it brings good things of the tennessean people and the country. and i live in new hampshire. jonah. hi katie. we expect the referendum to lead to a better life for our children's children to have a better life for us. it's over. why are we living under pressure? schools are a disaster. the situation is catastrophic. everything for disaster had thought that your grandma malik medias i voted today because we have great hope we are very hopeful my lecture nicea will prosper. starting today. it's the beginning of the new tramecia that you or if pass the new constitution will give my husband chi side ultimate authority over the judiciary and the government which will answer to the president, not the parliament. it's more of a presidential system reversing, changes made after the revolution in 2011. the president would be able to present draft laws and has so responsibility for treaties, budgets, and appointing, and faxing ministers and judges. private would be able to serve 2 terms of 5 years

each, but those towns could be extended if there is an immediate danger to the state. there was no cause for the removal of the president santa bayman the so i the that we will build together with our arms ideas and determination. we will build god willing and you were public. and so we will build a new republic based on real freedom and real justice and national dignity because there is no dignity for nation except with the dignity of its citizens. while a lot arrested sarah is live in the capital. 10 isn't a suggestion, as it turn out has been very low at only 20 percent. what can you tell us about said a voting process through the day? while 1000000 we have just been informed by their hire election authority, that the, that the participation to turn out so far is around 21.8 percent,

which is which is regarded as a quite low turnout. and comparing that that, that the turn out now with the elections, the presidential election, 2019 that the turn out was over 56 per cent. so turn out today here is one of the key issues because that is that the main factor that is going to give the legitimacy to this proposed constitution that the present case i desperately wants to, to, to, to, to pass after get the yes ward from. so since morning on but at 6 am early in the morning on, people have started to what and did that the wood is going to continue till 10 p. m . local time. here we have seen heavy security measures across the whole country, but particularly in the capital city, often is houses of fullest. army members include in their counter terrorism units were deployed across the street in front of the that the police stations simply to keep the teens of saver. and there are 5000 local observers or with more than 120

international independent observers. and today, when i was talking to the internet observers, some of them told me that they have been stopped from getting into the police station which res, the questions regarding the transparency of this within our process. but today, the key issue is going to be the turn of the law participation means the lack of legitimacy because in the country this referendum, the whole referendum is also been regarded as a what of confidence for our president at chi site tonight? by midnight, you are going to have a clear picture where the president gets what it wants or not. and of course his proposed changes would strengthen the powers of the president weak in the countries institutions. what would that mean for the country and, and the democracy? well here the expectation in tunisia is that the, the concert this referendum is,

is going to be a yes one without the alleged massey. the reason for that the critics are saying that simply the whole process had been on democratic and it wasn't transparent. so all the political parties were, were excluded from the discussion they haven't been involved. and that, that the, it was quite a rush of jobs so that the whole, the pivot campaign period was just limited with 3 weeks. and they say that it was deliberate designed to be like this because of that, the president didn't want to have it proper public discussion debate over what the constituent is all about. and they say that simply this constitution is given the exclusive rights to the president over the judiciary, over parliament and all the other state institutions. and that said at the dis, a constitution if adopted it is going to end the parliamentarian system being a executive presidential system in. and so let's say if it's adopted,

that will destroy that the separation of the power, the peck and back in july. and the check and balance in the company, and also it will pay the way back to authoritarianism in the country. all right, thank you. michelle. sadder and tennis, united states is saying there can be no business as usual with near laws. mil had change and hereafter executed full pro democracy act of this. it's the 1st time capital punishment has been used that for decades and killings have drawn condemnation from around the world. i hit papa as to became a lawmaker and sang stitches party was among those executed tiny chang ports on this. now. he was known to many as co, jimmy, and he knew the cost of standing up to mere mars military. german u. a veteran pro democracy activist had already spent 15 years in prison, protesting against previous military regimes. even though he had been found guilty on counter terrorism challenges in january,
