Got $79K? Own this historic residential school in Manitoba

APTN National News
The Kijiji advertisement reads: Move fast. Great opportunity.

From the pictures it’s a 26-acre brick school with farm buildings at a reduced price of $79,000.

But what the ad doesn’t mention is the property was home to the former Birtle Indian Residential School.

APTN’s Dennis Ward has the story.

  1. Angus Alfred says:

    I demand that this building be immediately taken down, If it ends up preserved and renovated as an historical monument, this will clearly state that Canada does not wish for reconciliation what so ever… it would be like bringing back Custer to life.

  2. Tear it down and burn the rest,TRC has brought the stories out ,We have heard the painfull memories. A building that housed the abuses.should be destroyed.make a park. I am a survivor , I sure wouldn’t want to be in my brothers and sisters shoes and pass an eye sore like that.
