12:30 am
ah, anna betty is fighting for the truth as well. ah, for her the scandal of fem aside is a personal issue in her sister died 4 years ago under suspicious circumstances with 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. mm. in the body bore signs of a beating with wounds to the head and
12:31 am
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 makes 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 in? we're disposable. you know? and that if one of us dies, that you know what? it doesn't really matter with there's lots of people who has committed murder in this city. and other parts of
12:32 am
canada who are walking are on free and with a homicide rate, 4 times greater than the national average. thunder bay is dub canada's crime. capital 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. mm. a scathing report by ontario's police watch dog has found under base police service, is rife with racism. and the handling of at least 9 cases involving the sudden
12:33 am
death of indigenous people were so problematic. they should be re investigated. i found a systemic racism exist in thunder. bay polish 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 sent to accompany us
12:34 am
a local police. ah cities been painted in a little bit of a negative light. recently just with a lot of negative media our crime. we've been at the top of some of the pretty bad categories when it comes to crime scene, domestics, or violent crimes or murder work or higher up there. so a lot of people see that and they paint front bay with a certain brush. i don't want anyone thinking that investigations are cut short, so we're here to reinvestigate these 9 and kind of go over the top. make sure every single thing is found. every stone is overturned, the officer must restore the police services prestige. it's a daunting task. i feel like that's gonna go a long way and rebuild
12:35 am
a lot of the relationships between the police and the community. so we arrived 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 our guide seizes the opportunity to make a few calls and chat to his colleagues. excited about we leave the car with the microphone inside is still switched on. oh, i agree to do this. these 2 french guys are hilarious. they're amazing. trust me more. i got a mike on. hey, i got a mike on turn this thing off. ah,
12:36 am
we returned to the car from someone who is the policeman. seems put out by our questions on him and right, right. he redefines the rules governing or interviewing is there a link between his crimes? comes a residential school 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. yeah. ah, there are 3 boys on the tour of crime scenes. continues carefulness. no gentlemen, for we carry on along the river of tears,
12:37 am
a canal with a sinister reputation. oh, in recent years, several indigenous corpses have been fish out of these waters. some of these cases are part of a 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. although unexplained, the deaths have been filed under accidental. that's what the police watchdog 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 for pants down and closed scattered despite signs, sexual activity and traces of dna held on file,
12:38 am
the police quickly closed the case. officially, christina died from hypothermia. why was it 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,
12:39 am
ah, the usual reference to the indigenous lifestyle it is a common argument put forth by the police with the investigations. now we opened 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 does the program 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

12:47 am
peoples. for more than 20 years, he has been present at every battle. his activism was triggered by events at the residential schools of my mind 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 step foot on reserve 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 him. how can that be
12:48 am
my country like canada? mm hm. did you think my thing 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. pounds. were children were tortured in the electric chair. yeah. unlike other victims of residential schools, they have received no financial reparations with the abuse they, for the 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 saint ann's report. the interview with a police officer was there use of an electric chair to administer shocks to
12:49 am
children who were tied in the chair. yes, there were consistent reports to the electric chair. some report suggested it was used for entertainment. there were beatings. children forced, he throwing vomit. yes, numerous people edge alleged that it affected them was their homosexual rape. yes. had her sexual rape. yes. it's like her color 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
12:50 am
after page after page of empty documents, the government blocked out almost all the evidence for them. the documents weren't useful for 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 got to go i used to think they were trying to hide somebody. i thought there was some bishop very important. ah, 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. mm. losing the case against st ins might bring to light other scandals and caused the state. dear, i welcome to ontario. i left flowers. foods 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, florida for falsifying informations 2 years earlier, the mpg prime minister to the matter of evidence being concealed by the govern generations log. 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 general suppressed thousands of pages of police evidence that identified those perpetrators. and in
12:52 am
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, the claimant's inadmissible. unless the survivor finds a witness to verify these atrocities, to the prime minister, enough, the survivors the sane and his are better will he instruct his garment to end this obstruction of justice against the survivors. saying as once and far off, auto prime minister speaker is done through indigenous people. over decades and centuries of colonialism in this country are shameful. in our 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 are working with survivors, lurked working with communities to ensure that we can move forward in
12:53 am
a way that is fully respectful of all their rights. as we get a get to the bottom of this of 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 and they're telling the public that they, with the latest act of this cynical approach is to prosecute the victims lawyer. ah,

12:55 am
with the sand applying to the 1st case of its kind. why the lawyer is accused of slandering the court? ah, the potential $25000.00 fine would force her to withdraw her commitment to the victims cause a after a short hearing, the judge rules interface. 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 which 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
