00:00I have felt dirty as Indian all my life in residential school.
00:19Look at that, it's all names.
00:24When you're brought up in an institution like the Catholic Church, you have strict rules
00:29and you went with their ethics.
00:34I've been trying to find out what happened at St. Joseph's Mission.
00:41Everything was so secretive.
00:45My dad was born there.
00:50How did it happen?
00:52It's not something that you want to open up, you know, it just keeps on damaging.
01:00For decades there were reports of neglect, children dying or disappearing from this facility.
01:06Two girls drowned, priests were moved around, why are they dying?
01:11Did they think we'd be stupid all of our lives, the rest of our lives, that nobody would ever
01:16find out these things?
01:28Being sorry for something is just the first step, you have to take action.
01:37We see the impacts in our community every single day and we need to continue to hold
01:42each other up.
01:47Julie and I ask you to open your heart, our people are going to stand up.
01:56Your story is someone who was abandoned, but also who abandoned.
02:02You do know what happened with me, right?
02:07I want to know the whole story.
