his cancer treatment rulers over the hunter. i use the whistle to call the children when i pick them up. i drive them for 5 shackles per month. some of those families get social aid, you can afford to pay me the full price. some of them pay me just 2 shekels. it's not even enough to feed a donkey and clearly not enough to feed my children. i also have a sick child, my son suffers from myoma. i used to send him for treatment in israel, but now i can't even send him to the hospital in rand cc, i simply can't afford to treat him. i can't even afford transportation to the hospital. sometimes i use a donkey to get there. my son hasn't had his treatment for 4 months. what can i do? i only hoped for help from god. the financial situation is a disaster and all of the gaza. some families haven't paid me for 4 months, but i have no choice but to continue to work like this. i can't leave the children 3rd dangers from the sun. he and traffic, and i would be held accountable if something happened. i hope for a solution. rti spoke with the father of one of the pupils who takes a donkey ride. he says that living in such poverty is merely existing. anna

and here the government wants to call and preserve for the i call it my grandfather's land. the indian act is still applicable to day. it was introduced in an attempt to settle and thus better control a nomadic people along with their territory. and resources the reserves were run by nuns and priests. their mission was to evangelize the savages to assimilate them our building. a karen with her pictures from the school. so this one is good. this is her, the students, girls and months. and these are the brothers.

part for me was always waiting every night just like there was somebody there that's gonna grab you. that's no place to be for any child. ah, we all came home with a dark secret generation after generation wealthy downs is an infamous school. it was only one of dozens. in a little over a century, 150000 children attended these institutions. ah, 4000 of them lost their lines. the last residential school closed down in 1996. i take the children and you eliminate all

their knowledge of their history, their culture. then you're basically killing the people that grew up on these lamps . that knew the lab that were connected to the lab and that's what these policies were to take the indian out of the bush, that they the indian away from the bush, milan and assimilate him indoctrinate him. there were genocide, i guess it was the way of killing people that way of killing a, a culture, a nation killed indian. mm

ah ah, i can assure you roughly where the scores burned down. fire took it by accident. we don't know. mm. mm. mm. take me to court. i don't know, only the fire knows for happy the missionaries are gone and now we can do our own. find our own way. we don't need to poop. we don't need the pope to tell us what to do with

ah abandoned since the late 1990 s. the huts are almost intact. time had stood still. ah, the ghosts are all that remains of the trauma that haunts edmond and the 1st nations peoples every single day. ah, that's how i grew up in it is really hard to to get over that. how do you get over that? one day you wake up in jail, got thank with

them. ah, cold drives everyone from the sidewalk. they are the only ones left street indians. the image of the dying people tempted by a better life. first nations, a youth flee the poverty of the reserves, and end up here at the end of the road. in thunder bay, a daily grind of alcohol and drugs, dental life of misery,

that no one pays any attention to any more. in the frozen downtown streets you survive anyway, you can a now 48 october is a survivor veritable miracle. like the rest of his family. he belongs to the last generation, taught by nuns and priests with for a long time drowned his pain in alcohol like almost half the men in his community. for you. this music has kept me alive, kept me alive,
