Residential schools documents an ‘obstruction’ of justice, NDP says
OTTAWA—The federal
government is “obstructing justice” by refusing to hand over unedited
documents to former residents of St. Anne’s Residential School, says the
NDP and a lawyer for several dozen aboriginal victims of abuse. Nine months ago, an
Ontario court ordered the federal government to hand over all documents
that could help corroborate the stories of the school’s survivors, who
say the documents will support their compensation claims.
