Listen now
Description
One night back in the late 1970s, an officer in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police pulled over a suspected drunk driver. When he walked up to the vehicle, he came face-to-face with a ghost from his past: a residential school priest. That officer was journalist Connie Walker’s late father.

What she uncovers is a much bigger story. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
