A must listen to Podcast
Thank you to everyone who worked to produce this series, especially the victims. I enhanced my journey by taking a trip. We spent 2 nights at Chemainus and we went on the ferry to Thetis for the day as it is the closest we could get to the private island of Penelakut. We made a silent trip of prayer and reflection and as the ferry approached the island we could see the landscape, only able to imagine where the longhouse is, and was the government wharf the same as when the girls were pushed into swimming. The shoreline of Thetis makes me think of the suffering of the children who tried desperately to flee. The suffering of parents and family members who recall seeing the children’s faces for the last time. I am aware of the history now and I will never forget and I will encourage all to listen.

I’m appalled to learn that the catholic priests are still treating boys that way and probably still...Read full review »
