Home on the Range
These were ribbons upon which I printed troubling and disturbing narratives of children who spent time in Residential Schools, or facts about these “schools” themselves. They appear to have been more like torture camps, than schools. One fact that may serve to relinquish any beliefs you hold that the crown of Canada treats its indigenous peoples well these days, or that colonial practices are a thing of the past, is that the last of these schools closed down in the late 1990's.
