and communities, and it's a shameful history and a history that calendar doesn't like to talk about not until just into those election in 2015 with the to abuse of colonization. finally shattered her 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 apologize, us 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 for the 1st time in the country's history acknowledged genocide. this is a gift to the prime minister. justin trudeau has raised the hopes of an entire people. but indigenous women are still dying. ah! after all the promises breathing families expect action because most cases are never settled. ah, how i make at least

a 100 of these little things may be more red dresses to denounce the murders and disappearances from school. 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 chill, or the case has never been solved when a big police are putting out another cough for public assistance in the death of a woman more than 7 months ago. and you went to, it didn't mention this call is asked to call investigators that said this year will be 4 years that she's been gone. they said they're gonna notify the family all the time and they don't notify the family and her

family refused to admit defeat. they will not let it go. oh wow. anna 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.

for we don't know what happened with 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 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 word

disposable. you know, and that if one of us dies that you know, it doesn't really matter. there's lots of people who have committed murder in this city and other parts of canada who are walking are on free with a homicide rate, 4 times greater than the national average. thunder bay is dub canada's crime capital. aah! in dozens of suspicious guests are closed without investigation, often involving 1st nations with for a long time, the reality remained hidden until a report by

a police watchdog except the cat among the pigeons. mm. 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 exists in thunder. bay police service at an institutional level investigations will too often handle differently, because the decease was indigenous investigators ignored evidence potentially pointed to a non accidental cause of 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 police cities been painted in a little bit of a negative late 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 hunter 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 soft, make sure every single 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 a lot of the relationships between the police and the community. so we're arrived on scene here. it's our only indoor scene of the 9 scenes that we're re investigating. so the access is going to be limited so that's $210.00 east victoria avenue, awe 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, but the microphone inside is still switched on. although i agree to do this, these 2 french guys are hilarious. they're amazing. trust more, i got a mike on. i got a mike on turn the thing off. 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 at richard. i'm sure the schools with all due respect, gentlemen, we've known each other for a couple hours in 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 you know what i'm saying? i see. yeah. ah,

ah, there are 3 bodies on here. the tour of crime scenes continues carefulness. no gentlemen. oh, we carry on along the river of tears, a canal with a sinister reputation. oh, in recent years, several indigenous corpses had 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. 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 $29.00 at the top. the woman was found in the early hours for pants down and closed 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 classified as a sudden death? you're saying? yeah. because there was no evidence to say otherwise to lead it into an or 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 higher 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 forth 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 what he thinks 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 a question that i won't answer with the following morning. we make one final attempt at a crime scene. ah mm.

ah a oh oh, oh boy, a bulk no issue. my for the mother when you visit annual g d. p per capita is about $4000.00 euros. a normal dollar a. washer fish lea, a coffee seal. i'm quite sure any chip for printers where you'll find them on the line to come out for lunch. a little thought they would have thought of unemployment is off the chart. moldova territorial integrity and sovereignty. we respect a country which enjoys financial support from the u. s. and the you has constantly

robbed by political and corruption scandals. but all that didn't stop mo, google obtaining you candidate status in 2022. 0, the atmosphere has become even more frosty overnight. so anyway, i apologize they, they told me not to ride with you guys and everybody's scared that i don't know. i thought we had some good dialogue yesterday with them, the police chief arrives gentlemen. hey, how are you this morning? a whole bunch 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. we can stay warm or we're going to 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. ah, few in thunder bay believed that the re investigation of these cases was produced. results for her part, i know continues to move heaven and earth to find the truth about her murdered niece. in my beautiful my beautiful name once a year, every year she gathers the family outside the house where her niece died. i need to align

with this is all that i have to keep alive the memory of her dead niece. a after years of denial in silence the grievances of 1st nations people. so finally being aired, demonstrators gather outside the prime minister's office as order was part of the building has, is an indigenous years leading the way to meeting with the recognize the non indigenous folks that are supporting as the stand by with the minister training

when you're guilty of systemic and reckless discrimination against 1st nation children. you cough up, you pay up and you say story. ah, i want to say how inspired i am to see ya. indigenous standing up and their allies and the women walking and proud of telling canada that there is a better way forward in that way is respecting the land and respecting the treaties, respecting the people i am honored to be a c. thank you. so the charlie angus is one of the only politicians in canada to defend the rights of 1st nations, peoples. for more than 20 years. he has been present at every battle. his activism was triggered by events or to residential schools. i'm only like a member of parliament. these youngsters want canada 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 it. when i was elected my region, is that some of the poorest 1st nation 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. he said, the member of parliament came to us. we had to find him. how can that be my country like canada? me, did you think my thing that's canada. we think we know our history. we think we know our neighbors. and yet, just the side, 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. pans. were children were tortured in the electric chair. yeah. unlike other victims of the 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 of the electric chair. some reports suggested it was used for entertainment, there were beatings, children forced heat, thrown vomit. yes, numerous people edge alleged that it affected them, was their homosexual rape?

yes. had her sexual rape. yes. it's like her 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 of empty documents, the government blacked out almost all the evidence for them. the documents weren't useful to 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 china. i had 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. mm. losing the case against maintenance might bring to light other scandals and caused the state deer. mm hm. welcome to ontario, power flowers, who want something,

flowers and snow. 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 emp gilder prime minister to 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 general suppressed thousands of pages of police evidence that identified those perpetrators. and in doing so, they had cases thrown out and undermined the hearing. and now that the justice department has been forced to turn over those documents, they claim it's inadmissible. unless the survivor finds a witness to verify these atrocities, to the prime minister enough,

the survivors has st and has, are better will he instruct his garment and this obstruction of justice against the survivors saying as once and for all of our prime minister paper bills done to indigenous people for 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, understand their history and make reparations in the right way moving forward ah, despite the prime minister's promises ah, 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 latest act of this cynical approach is to prosecute the victims lawyer. ah se bruning has represented the st ends plaintiff's for 10 years as a volunteer on this occasion. it is her clients who will be supporting her in a toronto courtroom with

like edmund. they have come from all over ontario for the trial in. ah, how are you, my friend? after to see uh oh, never ends. but it keeps me keep moving. like my brain with recorded can find 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 victim's cause

a after a short hearing. the judge rules in her favor. thanks to the survivors of saint dan's residential school. the whole people has just won its 1st battle and with it some kind of revenge on history. and the philosophy 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 damaged people, but never stop being indian people. ah, we are not free. we are prisoners of canada in 2020, i apologize. apologies. but

the reality is, i still have my banner i will continue to fight until they say no, for me, no more reserves. if i were free, ah, [000:00:00;00] ah

ah, with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time to sit down and talk ah, the elections are almost completely remove from day to day. large, the american people and so the american people, i believe it provided good information and left to their own devices. we're trying to on far more reasonable foreign conclusions and are coming to about world events,

right. with your headlines or not into national as europe's largest nuclear power plant comes under attack. moscow says the deputy ology facility has been shelled white kiev 13 times over the weekend. although ukraine's nuclear energy agency is accusing russia license to cause trouble plants by kosovo to find those in the breakaway problems with. so be
