Truth and Reconciliation Commission
(Winter 2014)
This I.S. Conference was offered in conjunction with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission national event held in Edmonton on March 27-30. An education day was held at The King’s University on Thursday, March 27, during which students learned about the history of the Indian Residential Schools, the ongoing legacy of trauma inflicted on aboriginal communities, and the settlement agreement of which the TRC is one component.
The second day, Friday, March 28, students attended the hearings at the Shaw Conference Centre and participated in scheduled events there, including a debriefing event at the day’s conclusion.
