of she also says that it's 20 miles for sure, which will be your it is charlie mozilla that go with the most of the separate yolanda m e. them we what rush has created over the past 1500 years. there's no question actually condemned, reviled and rejected to sit in line and your status of that for me at the will of bramble, there's a lot closer on a whole bunch. thank you said a little short list. joining total condemnation, gross daily, and now includes just ask a to cascade shostakovich that i need to. yeah, of course left, but yes, it also says that what i mean that i'm a huge year obama lee. you're not going to look it up with the law. ah,

it's very chavez. canada hasn't been very good. ah, to indigenous women and girls who have been missing or found murdered because of the structural racism history. the corneal history. that canada has with indigenous people and communities. and it's so shameful history and a history that canada doesn't like to talk about not until just into those election in 2015 with it to boost colonization. finally shattered a on being elected prime minister, the young head of state give a message to the 1st nations community working together timely the government of canada. sincerely apologizes and asks the forgiveness of the

aboriginal peoples of this country for failing them. so profoundly have to apologize and to residential school victims. the prime minister tackle the scandal from us for many decades, indigenous women and girls across canada have disappeared, suffered violence or been killed. it is shameful. it is absolutely unacceptable and it must end with the 1st time in the country's history, he acknowledged genocide. this is a gift to the prime minister. 6 just intruder has raised the

hopes of an entire people, but indigenous women are still dying. ah. after all the promises, grieving, families expect action because most cases are never settled. i wanna make at least a 100 of these little things. maybe more red dresses to denounce the murders and disappearances. i know has been affected by this sad reality. her niece died 4 years earlier, found murdered in the basement of her house. the filled forever showing the case has never been solved. when a big police are putting out another call for public assistance in the death of

a woman more than 7 months ago, and you went to a different nation is called, is asked to call investigators that said, this year will be 4 years that she's been gone they said they are, they notified a family all entire and they don't notified a family in the and her family refused to admit defeat. they will not let it go through the with wow and a betty is fighting for the truth as well. for her, the scandal of fem aside is a personal issue. her sister died 4 years ago under suspicious

circumstances. she was found by a person that was walking your dog in this area here. we were told that she had been there for possibly for 2 days. we don't know what happened ever since then. ever since may 2016, we been looking for answers. the body bore signs of a beating with wounds to the head and a fractured sterner. the police concluded death by alcohol poisoning. i refused to accept that someone can say, oh, you know what she died of alcohol poisoning because it me angry that if it was

a caucasian middle aged man that was found there. like, do you think the same, the investigation would have been done the same way? no, it wouldn't have, they would have been working really hard to find the answers. and so, why are we have less value? we're disposable, you know? and that if one of us dies, that you know what, it doesn't really matter. mm hm. there's lots of people who have committed murder in this city and other parts of canada who are walking around free. ah, and with a homicide rate, 4 times greater than the national average. thunder bay is dub canada's crime cavity

. dozens of suspicious deaths are closed without investigation, often involving 1st nations women. ah! for a long time, the reality remained hidden until the report by a police watch dog set the cat among the pigeons. mm. a scathing report by ontario's police watch dog has found thunder. bass police service is rife with racism. and the handling of at least 9 cases involving the sudden death of indigenous people were so problematic, they should be re investigated. i found a systemic racism exist in thunder bay. police service at an institutional level. investigations were too often handled differently because the deceased was

indigenous investigators ignored evidence potentially pointed to a non accidental cause or contribution to the death. at least 9 of these cases should be re investigated by a multi disciplinary team. ah, after months of negotiations, we are given permission to cover the reopening of these 9 neglected cases. but at the last moment, the chief investigator, fails to show the replacement officer is sent to accompany us a local policeman, prestige. it's a daunting task. i feel like that's gonna go a long way and rebuild a lot of the relationships between the police and the community. so we're a variety on scene here. it's our only indoor scene of the 9 scenes that were re

investigating. so the access is going to be limited. so that's $210.00 east victoria avenue. ah. from the very 1st crime scene, we are kept at a distance or guys seizes the opportunity to make a few calls and check to his colleagues. expect about we leave the car, but the microphone inside is still switched on. and i agreed to do this. these 2 french guys are hilarious. they're amazing. trust. i got a mike on. i got a mike on the 1st turn, the thing off we returned to the car from someone who is the policeman. seems put out by our

christian born healing rights. he redefines the rules governing our interviews and is there a link between this crimes comes a residential schools with all due respect, gentlemen, we've known each other for a couple hours and the way that there's so much negativity given on to the police that i don't especially the front of a police, i just don't feel comfortable giving those types of answers that could be chopped and put back together. do not. i'm saying i see. ah, there are 3 boys done here. the tour of crime scenes continues carefulness. no gentlemen, for we carry on along the river of tears, a canal with a sinister reputation. oh, in recent years, several indigenous corpses have been fished out of these waters. some of these

cases are part of the new investigation. careful where you walk guys, because there's a lot of empty packages here from needles. so just have a look while you're walking. also unexplained. the deaths have been filed under accidental. that's what the police watched on recorded in their report. so this is area, christine glory was found at the end of march 2016. right by the sign was 29. at the time, the woman was found in the early hours, her pants down and close, scattered. despite signs of sexual activity and traces of dna held on file, the police quickly closed the case. officially,

christina died from hypothermia. why was it's classified as a sudden death? you're saying, yeah, because there was no evidence to say otherwise to lead it into an a criminal investigation. so you can't create evidence freight. if you're living a higher risk lifestyle and you're constantly using and abusing substances, then you're going to put yourself in high risk situations. so for the youths that live that lifestyle, whether whatever race they be, it's, you know, when you're doing that, you're playing a different game. there's, there's a bigger chance of something bad can happen if you surround yourself in situations that have a greater risk to them, to your health and safety. so ah, the usual reference to the indigenous lifestyle it is

a common argument put forward by the police with the investigations now reopened. it's a sensitive subject to the case manager can leopard wanted to stick the line of questioning strictly to questions about the scenes. he didn't know that we would be doing all the stuff while at them. so what, what is the problem is to talk about politics. ah, yeah he, i think that might be part of it. i don't think he wants. i think he wants to keep the focus for us as investigator simply on the 9, the 9 deaths because it's a sensitive question. very sensitive question. um, it's got some sensitive elements to it for sure. but we could talk and if i don't feel comfortable asking, answering the question that i want to answer ah,

ah, the following morning we make one final attempt at a crime scene. with ah, the atmosphere has become even more frosty over night. so anyway, i apologize they, they told me not to ride with you guys and everybody scared that i don't know. i thought we had some good dialogue yesterday. and then the police chief arrives gentlemen. hey, how are you this morning?

we're good. you are my old phone today. we're going to be all very close here. so what i was going to do is keep the media here in the parking lot. so you can stay warm or we're gonna be so you'll be able to see us doing our work from here. it takes investigators only a few minutes to complete their mission. with a few in thunder bay, believe that the re investigation of these cases will produce results for her part, i know continues to move heaven and earth to find the truth about her murdered niece. oh, my beautiful my beautiful niece. once a year,

every year she gathers the family outside the house where her niece died. i need to line, i think is a, this is all that i have to keep alive the memory of her dead nice. i. after here of denial in silence the grievances of 1st nations people. so finally being aired, demonstrators gather outside the prime minister's office and the order was part of the building. as is, as indigenous, he is leading the meeting with the recognize the non indigenous folks that are supporting as the stand by with the

minister charity when you're guilty it says stomach and reckless discrimination against 1st nation children. you cough up, you pay up and you say, sorry, respecting the people i am honored to with c. thank you. so charlie angus is one of the only politicians in canada to defend the rights of 1st nations, people for more than 20 years. he has been present at every battle opposite. his activism was triggered by events at the residential schools on the line like a member of parliament. these youngsters one candidate to acknowledge his role in the darker side of its history. ah, and finally break the taboos of colonization. i was

almost 40 years old before ever stepped foot on when i was elected my region, is that some of the poorest for station communities anywhere? and i remember saying when i 1st landed in this community, it was just, it looked like a prisoner of war, kim and i said, what did the other member of parliament say when he came here? and they laughed, they said the member of parliament came to us. we had to find, ah, how can that be in a country like canada in did you think that my name that's canada. we think we know our history. we think we know our neighbors. and yet, just beside a big center, there will be a reserve where there's no clean water since 2013 charlie angus has been fighting alongside the victims of st. and we're children were tortured in the

electric chair. yeah. unlike other victims of residential schools, they have received no financial reparations with the abuse. they suffered legal proceedings have been rumbling on for years and to become a symbol of a national scandal. these are all from the police investigations that were done at st and report the interview with the police officer. was there use of an electric chair to administer shocks to children who were tied in the chair. yes, there were consistent reports to the electric chair. some reports suggested it was used for entertainment. there were beatings. children forced tea, throwing vomit. yes. numerous people edge alleged that it affected them was their homosexual rape? yes. had her sexual rape. yes. it's like a horror movie. it goes on and on, on and on. when the case came to

court, the canadian government adopted an odd position it refused to handle for evidence. victims no longer have access to their own testimony. it will take years for them to recover it. all the government was forced to turn over those documents. but then they blacked out the names of many of the perpetrators. what we got back was page after page after page empty documents, the government blacked out almost all the evidence to them. the documents weren't useful. so many of the worst criminals got away. the bishop's got away. ah, the ones who done most of the damage never got charged. ah, okay, i gotta go ah,

i used to think they were trying to hide somebody. i thought there was some bishop very important. ah, but what they're protecting is they're protecting the government of canada from having to pay its obligations. ah, now they're facing in canada. billions of dollars for this generation of indigenous children who are being taken away from their families losing the case against st ins might bring to light other scandals and caused the state. dear, i come to ontario power flowers. the ones who need flowers got snow in parliament

session is about to begin. and i'm going to be asking to find the government in contempt of parliament warning for falsifying informations. 2 years earlier, the m p grilled, a prime minister to go on the matter of evidence being concealed by the governor generations. all remember for timmins james bay children at st. and residential school, suffered nightmarish levels of abuse, torture and child rape. and yet the office of the attorney john suppress thousands of pages of police evidence that identified those perpetrators. and in doing so, they had cases thrown out and undermine the hearing. and now that the justice department has been forced to turn over those documents, they claim its inadmissible. unless the survivor finds a witness to verify these atrocities, to the prime minister enough, the survivors has seen and has there a better will he instruct his government and this obstruction of justice against the surviving her saying at once and for all

a prime minister. the ills done to indigenous people over decades and centuries of colonialism in this country are shameful, and are something that we need to learn from and move forward on that includes respecting the rights of indigenous peoples now in all their different aspects. and that's why we're working with survivors lurked working with communities to ensure that we can move forward in a way that is fully respectful of all their rights. as we get a get to the bottom of this, i understand their history and make reparations in the right way moving forward. ah, despite the prime minister's promises for the canadian government has adopted a new strategy and gone on the attack, ah,

they will go to any lengths to unsettled their opponents over $3000000.00 are being spent on court costs. ah, the government of the preferred seems to side with the perpetrators when they're telling the public that they, with the size in the latest act of this cynical approach is to prosecute the victims lawyer. ah, ah se bruning has represented the st. anne's plaintiffs for 10 years. as a volunteer on this occasion. it is her clients who will be supporting her in a toronto courtroom. in

like edmund, they have come from all over ontario for the trial. ah, how are you, my friend? after to see us? oh, i never ends, but it keeps me keep moving on in my brain with record can't seem to point to the 1st case of its kind. why the lawyer is accused of slandering the court. has the potential $25000.00 funding would force her to withdraw her commitment to the victim's cause in after a short hearing, the judge rules in her faith,

thanks to the survivors of satan's residential school. a whole people has just won its 1st battle. and with it, some kind of revenge on history. and the philosophy yield, they said was to kill indian and the child, which meant took them from their family and their land. they would cease to be indian people. but what they did was they created generations of people, but never stop being indian people. ah, we are not free. we are prisoners of canada and 2020 a apologies apology. but the reality is, i still have my banner i

will continue to fight until they say no more. no more reserves were free. ah ah ah ah no nation, no nation has ever done anything like it in all history. with

josh, ah ah .

ah. these are using this to absolute co waste. you give them a thought that we are. it's why we need to look a little physical if he had there been on the policy level sheet, which is much harold lanier, you mean look, is mikaela as opposed to we love for his lovely will be example graham. it was some live you williams. to fill that up as those to be new. ok, so let's hope monday.
