For many people, sitting near a body of water is a relaxing
experience. For Clarina Duguay of Quebec, it inspires terrifying
memories from her childhood—memories so painful she can scarcely find
words to express them more than 50 years later.
The shy, soft-spoken, 65-year-old Duguay is one of the Canadian province of Quebec’s infamous Duplessis Orphans, a group of more than 5,000 children whose parents handed them over to Catholic orphanages during the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, promised their children would receive a “good education.”
