Winnipeg Centre MP Leah Gazan is speaking many truths in Parliament on the discovery of the 215 children. All the former schools should be "treated as crime scenes." "Genocide is genocide. You can't classify it. It falls under the UN Convention." @LeahGazan
We need to replace the language of the colonizers and call this ‘shameful chapter’ for what it was (is) - genocide. Thank you for @smacdonald__ and @theJagmeetSingh who had the courage to use the appropriate language. Reconciliation begins with this acknowledgment.
